[quote=MN3][quote=dryaxe]Standing rigging = wires?[/quote]
the system of ropes, cables, or chains employed to support a ship's masts.
pretty much all the static wires (could be lines) that aren't adjusted (forestay, sidestays/shrouds, bridal wires, diamond wires, etc)
Running rigging = any lines (or wires) that are sheeted or adjustable (main, jib, halyards, etc)<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on Aug 24, 2017 - 01:59 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
