Racing and Performance Rigging

Competitive sailing demands rigging that delivers maximum performance, reliability, and precision. Our riggers understand the unique requirements of racing sailboats and can help you gain the competitive edge you need on the racecourse.

We work with racing sailors to optimize running rigging layouts, select low-stretch high-performance lines, install efficient control systems, and ensure that every component is designed for speed and responsiveness. Whether you're campaigning a one-design racer, offshore racing yacht, or high-tech performance catamaran, our team has the expertise to support your racing ambitions. Our partnership with Lancelin Cordage, combined with access to cutting-edge hardware from Harken, Ronstan, and other premium brands, means we can build rigging packages that stand up to the demands of competitive sailing.

Cruising and Offshore Rigging

For cruising sailors, reliable and easy-to-handle rigging is essential for safe, enjoyable voyages. Our cruising rigging solutions emphasize durability, simplicity, and user-friendly operation—especially important for shorthanded sailing or extended offshore passages.

We can help you design and install rigging systems that reduce the physical effort required to handle sails, improve safety with proper preventers and lazy jacks, upgrade aging rigging before it fails at sea, and install modern furling systems for easier sail management. Our riggers understand the unique challenges of bluewater sailing and can recommend proven solutions that provide peace of mind wherever your cruising takes you. From coastal day sailors to world-cruising yachts, we build rigging that you can trust.
