There is currently a rumour circulating that the IRC rating increase for composite standing rigging is going to be removed for 2009.
While it is true that the IRC Technical Committee is looking at the rating cost of composite standing rigging, it is unlikely that there will be any change at all. If there is, it will be small.
There is certainly no intention for 2009 of removing the rating cost for composite standing rigging.
