Standing rigging

[jlmsa...@gmail.com]

Can any one provide the wire size of the standing rigging on a p36-2? I know the back stay is bigger than the side stays but what are the different standard (original) sizes?

Measuring Skylark's (Pearson 36-2) forestay, backstay, cap shrouds and lower stays with my Loos tension gauge, I get:

Forestay = 3/8"

Backstay = 3/8"

Cap shrouds = 3/8"

Lower stays = 5/16"

Are you not 36 (not 36-2)?
