Currently swapping out various lines. Does anyone know the approximate total length/diameter of the inmast outhaul and inhaul lines for 2009 SO44i with classic rig? Tempted by an online offer but boat is in Spain and I’m in the UK. I’m hoping 26m of 12mm will do it.

I'm not clear on which lines you are talking about. What is an "in mast outhaul/inhaul"?

Hi Jon.
Are you thinking of the Marinescene rope End offers? I’ve been using them for years now. My in-mast ropes are all 12mm but I’m not sure of the length. With Marinescene I find it cheaper to overestimate the length and just cut off what I don’t need. With the inhaul rope don’t cut it until you’ve used a couple of times to furl the sail. It’ll bed in and be too short. I know.
Thanks for the sage advice. I was looking at another supplier but just visited Marine Scene. Absolute bargain! At that price I could easily play safe with over estimating lengths. Fortunately, we’re now able to squeeze in a bonus trip to Aquarela next month so I can now take precise measurements.
Also worth getting in touch with one of the Jeanneau dealers - Clark & Carter have always been very helpful for me - who can access the dealer database to get those dimensions for you

Guys the furling line is 10mm not 12mm as I said earlier. I checked on the Z-Spars website.
