Riggers in the Plymouth ----urgent

[clyst]

Anyone know of a rigger (or indeed anyone who is willing to climb a mast with "steps"and drill a few holes -----I dont like heights !!)) in Plymouth other than Euro Spar, Allspar and Hemisphere ? I'v tried them and they are fully booked till may !!

Cheers

Not strictly riggers but Plymartech may be able to help or know someone, they are based at mountbatten boat sheds.

If i were you, and as its only a small straight forward job, i would go in and ask if any of the riggers want to do it as a private job. Chances are they will all have their own rivet guns and chairs. The rigging company shouldn't mind too much. How come mast steps are such an urgent job? Especially if you don't like heights.

Thanks for your replies chaps . Plymartec will hone 'em tomorrow . Matt has done work for me before .

Yacht rigging Services are Euorspar . ------ I think .

have asked riggers for a bit of "moonlighting" not one was interested . Offered £100 for an evenings work . BTW The reference to the mast steps was just indicating the ease of climbing the mast .they are not at fault .

Sorry misread your post, i thought you wanted steps fitted. V. surprised none of them would do it, riggers in plymouth obviously make too much money

Oh sorry; I picked up their leaflet in the marina office and there was no mention of them being Eurospars; I thought they were an independent.

No personal experience, but I know they do/did work for Westways at QAB from time to time and a friend who used to work there recommended them to me in the past.

Another one. Has done several jobs for me over the years, quite satisfied.

There is quite a lot of info re riggers in Plymouth etc., on noonsite.com

Good luck,

If I had seen you waving a £100 about earlier, I would have caught a cheap Ryanair flight from Alicante and done it for you, that is a weeks wages here.
I find it hard to believe that people were not fighting for the work.
