| Sailboat
assembly |
We
can assemble almost any sailboat brought to us. If too many of
the original parts of an out-of-production boat are missing, this
may not be possible. We will be able to give you the knowledge
to make the best decision at that time. If assembly is possible
we can then note and recommend any necessary upgrades or repairs
to make your boat fully functional.

| Custom
rigging and systems |
Running
rigging: Following the guidelines of class rules (if available)
we have designed systems that make sailing boats easier. Many
times a rigging system developed for one class will transfer to
another class wih little modification. We can help you determine
what is appropriate and what is not.
|
| Standing
rigging: If you have built a kit boat and need custom wires
for it we can build them for you. We shorten wires, replace masts/booms,
add or remove furlers, etc. |

service is performed in house and it's always helpful to have
the existing wire in hand for duplication. Send UPS or drop
off. We can also engineer your wires from scratch. |
