RERIG Meaning and
Definition
-
Rerig is a verb that refers to the act of reinstalling or modifying the rigging (i.e., the system of ropes, wires, and chains) of a vessel, machine, or structure in order to enhance its performance or accommodate specific needs. This term is often used in the context of maritime activities, particularly in sailing and boating.
When a boat's rigging becomes worn out, damaged, or outdated, it may be necessary to rerig the vessel by replacing certain components or making adjustments to improve its stability, maneuverability, or speed. This could involve installing new ropes, lines, pulleys, or fittings, as well as repositioning or reinforcing existing ones. Rerigging is also commonly undertaken when modifying the sail plan or adjusting the configuration of masts, booms, or stays to optimize their efficiency in varying weather conditions.
In a broader sense, the term "rerig" can also be used to describe the process of modifying or reconfiguring the rigging or support structure of other mechanical systems or structures. For instance, in the context of construction or engineering fields, rerigging may involve modifying or repositioning rigging equipment used in hoisting, lifting, or moving heavy objects.
Overall, rerigging is an essential maintenance practice that ensures the proper functioning and safety of vessels, machines, and structures, allowing them to perform optimally according to specific requirements and conditions.
