Quick answer
For a 35-foot (about 10.7 m) monohull, the model's band for 1x19 stainless standing rigging is about $9,000 to $14,600. At this size most re-rigs are done mast-out, so crane and yard lines usually appear on the quote.
Standing rigging by material (35 ft)
| Material | Indicative band (AUD) |
|---|---|
| 1x19 stainless | $9,000 – $14,600 |
| Compact strand | $11,700 – $19,000 |
| Synthetic / Dyneema | $14,000 – $22,700 |
| Rod | $18,000 – $29,200 |
Common add-ons (35 ft)
| Add-on | Indicative band (AUD) |
|---|---|
| Unstep mast and crane | $1,700 – $3,600 |
| Yard / hardstand time | $1,200 – $2,900 |
| Furler strip and service | $1,000 – $2,900 |
| Chainplate inspection | $1,200 – $5,400 |
| Running rigging renewal | $2,200 – $5,300 |
| Tuning and sea trial | $500 – $1,300 |
Worked example: a typical 35-foot mast-out re-rig
Using the same model as the estimator, a common scope for a 35-foot monohull adds up like this:
| Scope | Indicative total (AUD) |
|---|---|
| Core: 1x19 standing rigging, mast unstep and crane, yard time, furler service, tuning | $13,400 – $25,300 |
| Full: core scope plus chainplate inspection and complete running rigging | $16,800 – $35,900 |
Most 35-footers are re-rigged mast-out. In-mast furling, swept-spreader rigs with extra shroud components, or a keel-stepped mast step that needs work will push a quote toward the top of the band.
Questions to ask when you get quotes
- Are toggles, clevis pins and turnbuckles new or re-used?
- Is the forestay inside the furler being replaced, and is the foil being cut to suit?
- Who books and pays for the crane and hardstand?
- Are chainplates being removed and inspected, or only looked at from the deck?
- Is a follow-up re-tension after the first sail included?

Boats this size
Thirty-five feet covers a large share of Australian cruising yachts: production cruisers from Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria and Hanse, plus many older Australian-built boats and cruiser-racers.
What moves the price
- in-mast furling mainsail service
- swept-spreader rigs with more shroud components
- keel-stepped mast step corrosion found on unstepping
- adding upgrades such as LED lights and Dyneema halyards while the mast is out
