Vernon replaces the standing rigging on his catamaran, *Learning By Doing*, while anchored in Cronulla, Australia.1:24 To reduce costs, he performs the labor-intensive tasks himself, including removing the diamonds, side shrouds, and forestay, while hiring Bryce of Infinity Rigging to swage the new wire and perform final tuning.1:52 He uses halyards to support the mast while the shrouds are removed and employs Duralac to prevent galvanic corrosion between stainless steel screws and aluminum spreader caps.13:15 The forestay replacement requires dismantling the furler and foils, a process involving multiple people to manage the length and tension.21:40 After completing the installation, Vernon tests the rig under sail in eight knots of breeze, confirming the tension on the windward shroud and the pre-bend of the mast.27:49 The project costs $6,800 AUD, which Vernon estimates saved him approximately $3,000 AUD compared to a full-service professional installation, despite rising material costs post-COVID.29:21
