Service Work

Complete a mast & rig appraisalWe will check everything from the deck up – from deck gear to masthead sheaves. In short a full MOT for your yacht’s rig & deck gear. Using our newly developed mast & rig app you will receive a highly detailed report accompanied by images with a full breakdown of all the yacht’s rig parts and any advisories.

Remove & store masthead gearA rigger will safely remove mast head lights, Anemometers and aerials. These will be stored on board below deck. Prevents winter bird strikes, any unnecessary wear, whilst prolonging the unit’s life.

Remove Sprayhood/Dodgers for Valeting/Reproofing/ServicingSprayhood and dodgers will be removed and prepared ready to be sent off for valeting & servicing.

Rig tension - check & tuneWe will check the standing rigging has enough tension, the mast is square (upright) and true (not bent). We will tune your rig based on our knowledge and experience. If you have Loos gauge figures we will calibrate the rig to those settings.

Rigging Turnbuckles—thread check & serviceWe will remove turnbuckles, clean the threads, checking they are still in a good strong/serviceable condition. Turnbuckles will then be re-instated using Tefgel which will extend the life of the turnbuckle.

Deckgear – serviceAll moving parts on the deck e.g. Turning blocks, deck organisers, traveller tracks and clutches used for sail control, will be checked, flushed out with hot water and then lubricated.

Winches – serviceServicing of winches should be undertaken at least once a year. Winches will be removed and bought back to the workshop. All old salt & grease will be removed in our parts washers. After washing all winch parts will be inspected for wear. Finally the winch will be re-greased and oiled before being rebuilt and put back on board in situ.

Running Rigging – wash & serviceHalyards, reef lines, sheets and control lines will be moused out & removed. Ropes are initially soaked overnight in fresh water with disinfectant. Ropes are then passed through our custom rope washer and carefully inspected along the full length of rope. Once dried ropes will be serviced, whippings applied, shackles checked and any findings reported back to the owner. Finally ropes will be placed back on board until the yacht is ready to be re-launched and then re-moused into the mast.

Running Rigging – remove & storeAll running rigging will be removed, hanked up, dried and stored on board (below deck) for the winter, to prevent them from going green and being exposed to the elements whilst not in use.

Anchor chain & docklinesWe will remove the yachts anchor chain and check that it is still safe to use, from locker connection right to the anchor, including any splices. Measurement markers can be fitted upon request. Docklines will be checked for chaffes, frays and condition of splices. Whippings will be added to tail ends if they don’t have any.

Liferaft – remove & serviceWe’ll remove the yacht’s liferaft and arrange for it to be serviced and stored over the winter months.
