[quote=bradinjax][quote=gahamby]Yes, Standing rigging is the forstay, bridle, and shrouds (side stays). Running rigging is the sheets, halyards, traveler control lines. I guess the trapeze wires are somewhere in between.
No matter the environment the boat is in, use the best stainless steel you can afford for the rigging. Rust never sleeps.
You also might want to sell the boat. Non stainless rigging components would be a liability.
Tom Haberman at Aquarius will sell you a  complete rigging package. Yeah it will cost you but it will be righteous.
If I was to replace my standing rigging today I would probably go that route.[/quote]

I second buying the package direct from RC/Aquarious. Tom Haberman is probably one of the nicest and most knowledgeable people in beachcat sailing. He has helped me on several projects and in every case the knowledge I gained working with him was more valuable than the actual project itself. Just PM me if you need his contact info or email him through the Aquarious/RC website which I see you are all ready on.

Congrats on your SC!
