Very odd
Hello,
I've seen rigs in which the upper shrouds go over the upper spreaders, but lead just aft of the lower ones. But intermediates? Odd. Are you sure everything is going to the right chainplate? Raking spreaders aft should be done intentionally, to control/induce mast bend and/or stay tension. On traditional boats, the pivot allows the leeward spreader to get out of the way of the main'sl off the wind. If your system has no such logic to it, it isn't really a system.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
