Cal 20 running rigging

I was just about sell my Cal 20 when, after six years on the list, my name finally came up for a slip at the city owned sailboat marina (nice, and cheap). So I'm keeping her now but need to update some rigging. I need advise on how to configured the main sheet, the backstay adjuster and whether or not I can get away with 1/4" rope halyards to replace rotting the 1/8" wire/rope. Also, has anyone experience with the new SpicingNut? https://ssl.perfora.net/splicingnut.com/index.php?page=directions More to come ... Thanks, Chris Chris Collins '63 Cal 20 #323 "don't know yet" Nashville, TN

He did rigging for Jensen Marine. Chris Campbell
