Loos Professional Tension Gauges - A slack rig is more punishing on a hull & spars than a properly adjusted, tight rig by needlessly allowing excessive movement, chafe & shock loading. Used a great deal by racing sailors, but equally important for use on cruising yachts, these easy to use & gauges will quickly & accurately give you the tension of your rigging, so that you can tune your boat for maximum performance. It will also let you repeat the rig-settings when re-stepping your mast in the spring. These Professional gauges have a higher accuracy than the standard gauges and they can be adjusted with the gauge fixed on the wire.

This is quite expensive but worth the money. Accurate, very easy to use and consistent. The fact that you can leave it attached to the shroud while adjusting makes a huge difference

Expensive but easy to use and speeds up the tensioning of the rig wonderfully. Read Selden's rigging advice on the Internet to get the necessary tension figures especially if used on twin or split back stays.
