We recently discovered that our chainplates needed to be replaced and now the rig needs to be tuned.  Does anyone have any input on the proper tuning tensions?  We do have a loos tension gauge.
Thanks!

I also am trying to tune our Pearson 367 and looking for advice on where to find this information.  I did not locate it in the manual.  Any help would be appreciated.

Bill Shaw wrote a simple guide to tuning your rig for Pearson Current many years ago. The article can be found on Sea Dragon's website on the "Manuals" page.
