So a routine survey, say, every ten years or so, might be a good investment?Where does it end? If you're going to renew the rigging screws, what about the chain plates, their attachment to the hull, the hull itself? It may not be a completely full proof test, but your eyes can determine if there is wear on the threads of the turnbuckles, although I really can't see how the threads would be "jiggling about".
