Default Rod Rigging - Hype?

have a hard time believing that rod rigging fails less than wire.


As Gary pointed out, rigging failure is rare compared to a fitting or
chainplate cracking. That said, rod rigging is stronger and virtually
impossible to break, where wire does and has parted under sail. I'll
take the rod rigging every time thank you, especially on a boat in the
fine condition that mine is in. I also had rod on the C&C 32 and it was
bullet proof...really.
