The history

SmartRigging was founded in the beginning of 2004 by R.J v.d Schuit. The fomer Dutch, European and World champion 18Ft. catamaran sailing.

After 6 months of engineering, practical and sailing tests, SmartRigging has succeeded  in adapting America’s Cup and Ocean racing rigging technology to PBO fibre stays for sailboats and dinghies ranging from 4 to 11 metres.

EasyRigging, the new brand, is especially designed for sailboats standing rigging, head stays and aft rigging such as, check stays, runners, e.g.

EasyRigging can produce the super lightweight endless wound rigging cables with high modules Aramid or PBO fibres.

These super fibres are 70 till 90% lighter, and twice as strong as steel rigging. The fibre properties create that these high performance rigging cables are much lighter and stronger then normal steel rigging.
