TRADITIONAL YACHTS - TRADITIONAL STANDING RIGGING


TRADITIONAL RIGGING WIRE - GALVANISED
Mild Steel 7x7 Galvanised Marine Grade provides a very traditional look and feel. It requires some maintenance by way of dressing during the year, but if looked after, can last the lifetime of the boat. We use wire from a reputable British manufacturer, which is heavily galvanised specifically for the marine industry.

TRADITIONAL RIGGING WIRE - STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless Steel 7x7 wire (7 bunches of 7 strands) is used on traditional wooden yachts with a lower tensioned rig. Due to its construction the wire has slightly more give in it and is kinder to wooden hulls.
