Textiles
What we provide
We offer a full range of bespoke running rigging products and services focussed on quality, performance and reliability. Whether you are building a new yacht and need an entire package or it’s time to replace or upgrade existing items, we can help you find the best solution for your needs. Our team has vast experience in supplying textile components to Grand Prix race teams and Superyacht clients alike.
Lines
We have longstanding relationships with our material suppliers and as a result can work with them on a large range of customisations including:
- A range of cover materials that can be adjusted to suit the application and handling requirements.
- Machine tapering of lines to reduce weight, handling and storage requirements of line tails.
- Variable braiding tension in the line cover to ensure it is kept as tight as possible and tolerance is only introduced at the splice section.
- Lines that are specifically designed for use on captive winches with grip inserts to reduce movement between core and cover.
- Customisable colour options so that the textiles can match the yachts aesthetics and to help with line identification.
Strops & Mooring Lines
Our strops are lighter and safer than traditional metal-based solutions and can be used in a wide range of applications including halyard lock strops, deck hardware connections and standard rigging interfacing. Each item is custom designed to match the load, length and configuration requirements of the application.
Rigging Projects also offers a comprehensive range of dock line solutions. Over the years we have supplied custom solutions on everything from 20m race yachts to 60m Superyachts. Options include the use of machine tapering and dyneema core to reduce coil size and weight as well as full colour customisation and chafe protection.
Accessories
Numerous accessories are available, designed and manufactured by our own team here at Rigging Projects. Options include titanium dogbones, friction rings, stick on pad-eyes and more!
The RP App
Keeping track of textiles on board a yacht can be a challenge. Different products have different lifespans and requirements. Yet missed replacement dates can lead to costly failures and unexpected downtime.
To simplify this process, Rigging Projects has developed a new app designed to centralise all your yacht’s rigging and hardware data. Once logged in, the app sends you service / replacement reminders, digitally stores hardware manuals and assembly diagrams, facilitates remote inspection reports (which we can sign off within the app) and makes spare parts ordering seamless, with access to our extensive parts library.
Whether you’re a yard, an owner, captain or crew member, this tool is designed to keep your yacht running smoothly, minimising downtime and maximising efficiency.
