Running rigging

posted 09-12-2008 by Claude Labrecque

Hello ,

Unfortunately for you we do not have a 340 but we have a 1991 hunter 35.5
You can compare the specifications with your 1997 hunter 340

The specs are nearly identical.

340; I 43 J 11.6 P 43.7 E 15 Mast 56 WL 28.7
35.5; I 42 J 12.2 P 44.1 E 14.3 mast 55 WL 29.1
On the 35.5 the first reef is at 67 and the second is at 13 2 3/4

Here are the running rigging specs for our boat

Main Halyard 7/16 118
Jib Halyard 7/16 102
Main sheet 7/16 54
Jib sheet 7/16 44
Vang line 3/8 45
Topping lift 3/8 67

No info on reefing line sorry!

We changed our Main halyard for a Samson warpspeed last year and it made a big difference in heavy air. Our previous Halyard was stretching and making the main wrinkle. This new line has very little strech and offer better sail shape and control.

Good luck
