Has anyone used the Navtec Dyform rigging? It is about twice the cost of regular 1x19 316 stainless. They claim to have 25%less stretch, 30% more strength, and smaller diameter. Those are good things, but are they worth it? Any suggestions?

Brad,
As measurer for the CB J-30 fleet I had a query last month requesting a ruling on the use of Dyform for the headstay. The one-design J-30 rules state that replacement of standing rigging must be of the same material and design as the original equipment. Our ruling was that dyform is of different design than standard 1x19 wire and may not be used.
