Got a Technical Rigging Challenge? We're Here to Help
With over 10,000 products on our website, we know it can be difficult to find the exact right component for your system. Sailboat rigging is rarely one-size-fits-all. Whether you're upgrading a single element or designing a full system from scratch, we’re here to help with expert advice tailored to your boat and sailing style.
We support technically minded boat owners, project managers and boatyards in sourcing the right equipment and specifying integrated systems that actually work — not just in theory, but under load, offshore and in variable conditions. If you're not sure what combination of components will work best for your system, we can help bridge the gap between product and application. So, Let's Get Started! Fill out the form below and our team will guide you through the process.
Latest testimonials
Had a very good experience with Upffront - without being solicited they researched our rig through their industry contacts to ensure correct decisions were made which not only improved the rig but saved money in the long run as well. Friendly and knowledgeable service, parts delivered on time and as ordered.
I give them five stars! Really very good advice, very competent and also - and this has become very rare today - with a lot of joy and friendliness at work.
This shop will definitely become one of my favourites.
