When it came to selecting a running rigging supplier that would match the requirements of this high performance 78’ catamaran Offshore Rigging Services were the obvious choice.
Designed by multihull legend Nigel Irens and built at Green Marine the running rigging for this project not only had to match the high loads seen by the powerful sail plan but compliment the aesthetics of the yacht. We worked closely with our material supplier to develop a range of lines that combined just the right mix of materials to offer high performance yet fit with the subtle colour scheme on board.
Once again our involvement extended into consultancy on spar package and deck plan, structural testing and sea trials. The end result was a great success with the boat sailing perfectly on its first outing.
“Scott, Richard, I wanted to write a quick note to thank you for all your work on Allegra over the past year. When choosing a rigging supplier for the performance cruising cat, we looked for someone who could understand our custom needs, and who also had a deep background of yacht racing. On paper ORS fitted the bill, and after meeting you in person we were further convinced you were the right guys for our job. Your involvement in the VOR65s also helped us make the decision. As well as supplying our running rigging, we very much appreciate all your helped in spec’ing deck gear and layout, and your time spend onboard during commissioning. I would be happy to recommend you to anyone either racing or cruising, and look forward to a long working relationship. How can you doubt someone who barcodes every line!!?
