Hi

I have just bought a 1967 Albacore and I am new to sailing. I have tried to put the rigging together but cannot for the life of me get all the ropes, wires etc in the right place. Does anyone have a step by step guide or diagram which may help me figure it out.

If after reading the above and realising that your slightly older boat may not have all the "bits" feel free to give me a call and I will talk you through some of the changes since 1967!

Hello,

I’m in the same boat (ha ha ) as I’m just getting my first sailboat which is an Albacore cobbled together from several other Albacores and could certainly use some help. I saw in a reply there was a note saying “rigging guide here” ? Being also new to this web site, I couldn’t find where here was. In case you’re wondering I’m actually in Deux-montagnes, Quebec, Canada. Any help would be appreciated

Hello. Again. Ok I found here,,, sorry about that, in any case it was all very interesting and way beyond my current level and needs. Really just looking for a basic guide on how to rig an Albacore, if someone would have an old guide or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated,
