Riggers in Gosport area

[JeremyF]

Ive just got my new (to me) Bav 34 in the water in Gosport last week, and had a great first sail over the weekend. However the mast was stepped by the guys who craned the boat in. They forgot to tension the shrouds from the mast at the same height as the upper spreaders down to the lower spreaders (Bet they have a yottie name!) This oversight makes me concerned that they haven't set up the rigging that well.

Which riggers are recommended in the Gosport area. Ive been recommended XM Rigging; anyone got experience of these guys?

Yacht Solutions at Port Solent served me well.

XW rigging replaced all my rigging on a moody 33 last year did a good job.

Welcome to the Bav 34 non-exclusive club!

 

[JeremyF]

You are right about the non-exclusive bit. From my berth in Campers I can see about 10. At least there are plenty of people who know about them to ask Bav-specific questions!

Anyway, we can't all be wrong!

Thanks for the advice. I called them, and they are going to tune things next week.

Well they are selling an awful lot of them so they must be doing something right.

Wave next time you go by - we're in Haslar - "Pohutukawa"

Hi Jeremy,

Think you should join the Bavaria Owner's Association for exchange of information with other BAV owners.

Have a look at their web site www.bavariaowners.co.uk

MICA (yet another Bavaria)
