Some folks will say 10 years, but I don't believe there's a set formula that reconized how differently boats are used and how much. A friend has owned a C&C 33 for 25 years and he feels the original rod rigging still has an indefinite life.
I think the thing to do is to have a professional rigger inspect your gear and advice base don wha the sees.
