I've bought a 27' yacht in Weston Super Mare, and the rigging is old. It looks fine but is over 10 years old so I'm looking for a good but reasonable rigger in the area. Can anyone recommend somebody? Preferably one who can do it without removing the mast.

A few years ago I used Andy Freemantle who travelled over to Portishead from Cardiff. He did an excellent job but he removed the masts and made up many of the fittings in his workshop (which has the necessary presses etc).

He had his own business then but I believe he now works for Cardiff Marine Services doing the same thing.

Another recommendation for Andy. I'm sure if you can get the boat over to him it will be a lot cheaper. They have a hiab at the marina and could probably do the whole thing in one go.
