Tools A selection of riggers, ropeworkers and sailmakers tools - many of which came about as a result of taking over the shop side of Footrope Knots. It is an area we are likely to expand in future.

Running Rigging The equipment like cleats, track, furling gear and winches which you need for controlling the sails

Plans A selection of fine boats including Iain Oughtreds Designs which you can build yourself

Mast & Spar Fittings Goosenecks, gaff saddles and custom work

Rope There can't be many places in the world which offer as many types of rope as we do. We range from Hi-tech rope for racing boats to natural fibre yarns for decorative ropework, and pretty much every stop in between. Grouped into Synthetic, Natural Fibre and Small Stuff to be convenient rather than prescriptive. Use just what you like!

Hull Portlights, rudder gear and stanchions for example

Fasteners, Materials & Maintenance In brass, bronze and copper.

Cabin Fittings & Lights Catches, hinges, locks and lights for the cabin.

Standing Rigging From backstay levers to wire rope, the equipment is here to keep the rig standing.

Blocks Blocks in ash, elm, bronze & tufnol. For some thoughts on how to work with blocks and rope, see here.

Deck From boathooks to winches via hatch fittings.

Boat Jumble Money for old rope and other short stories. Some ex-stock some secondhand and some as new.
