Running Rigging / Sheets And Halyards

These are the sheets, halyards, and other lines that were specified by Hunter for your boat, complete with eye-splices, shackles, and ready to install.

Please note that we cannot guarantee these lines are what you currently have, only what you are supposed to have. You may have different lines due to changes by a prior owner, supply shortages that caused factory substitution, or special rigging ordered by a dealer.

MANUFACTURERS: All lines shown are Samson XLS3, which is the descendent of the lines used by Hunter for many years. All headboard shackles are made by Ronstan and snap shackles by either Ronstan or Wichard.

COLORS: Colors were subject to change so we have not specified them. You can select colors to match what you currently have or do something different.

SPLICING AND WHIPS: Eye splices and shackles are included where called for in the original Hunter spec. All loose ends are whipped.

SUBSTITUTIONS AND MODIFICATIONS: Sorry, we cannot substitute or modify lines ordered on this screen. If you have specific requirements in mind please try our Running Rigging Calculator, which offers a few configuration options and automatically specifies adequate size and length for more than 4,000 boats. Or, if you know exactly what you want use our Running Rigging Builder which gives you total control over the line, size, length, color, whips, splices, and shackles.

A NOTE ABOUT MAINSAIL FURLING LINES: Mainsail halyards are made from MLX3 when specified by Hunter. Mainsail furling lines do not offer a choice of colors. The manufacturer makes them in batches of a certain color, which is subject to change. It is typically white with red or blue flecks.
