Hi All!

I've just purchased my first JJ Taylor Contessa 26' and have begun an extensive refit.

The mast was stripped of all hardware and all running rigging, so I'm starting fresh. I'd love to hear what others have done for their Rigging @ the mast? My initial plan is to rig it similar to my last boat with Lewmar 8 winches on either side of the mast for the Jib & Mainsail halyards.

Has anyone run something similar that they could share a photo of? Or any advise on the winch size/how to mount these winches? Even any pictures or thoughts would be super helpful!

Thanks, and looking forward to joining the Contessa community!
