"The new rigging looks excellent and has been much admired by other owners and yard staff. Will be happy to recommend you and for any prospective customers to look at my rigging."

Have just been on the boat for the first time since you did the rigging and had a great week away. I just wanted to let you know that we think both the rigging and stem head fitting look great. We even think we’re getting an extra knot thanks to the new rig set up! Very many thanks again.

I have just had work carried out by Pav and the guys at rigituk on my SO 452. This included new standing rigging,spreaders,inner forestay, guard wires and most of the running rigging. The work was carried out very professionally and Pav was always willing to suggest modifications to fit my budget.
