Professional Boat Riggers – Trusted by Sailors in Sydney
In the demanding world of sailing and yacht performance, reliable rigging is essential. Every mast, stay, shroud and control line plays a critical role in safety, performance and vessel longevity. That’s why serious boat owners, racers and cruising skippers trust the expert yacht riggers at Roni Rigging and Racing for comprehensive rigging, maintenance and yacht optimisation services across Sydney.
Why Rigging Matters for Every Vessel
Rigging is the backbone of your sailboat. Standing rigging includes the fixed wires or composite rods that support your mast, which keeps the whole system upright and secure under load. Without properly tuned rigging, performance suffers, safety is compromised, and this puts significant stress on sails, spars and deck hardware.
On the other hand, running rigging encompasses all your control lines, halyards and sheets, and governs how effectively you trim and handle your sails. Over time these lines wear, stretch and accumulate stiffness, reducing your boat’s responsiveness.
That’s why routine rig inspections and professional tune-ups are vital for sailors who demand precision, whether you’re racing hard or cruising fast.
Comprehensive Rigging Solutions Tailored to You
At Roni Rigging and Racing, every service is delivered by experienced sailors and boat riggers who understand boats from keel to masthead. Their approach balances performance, safety and practicality, perfect for cruisers, racers and everyone in between.

Precision Rig Tune Services
Not all rig tunes are created equal. Roni Rigging and Racing offers multiple rig-tuning options to suit your goals:
- Static Rig Tune – Measurements and adjustments made while the boat is docked to optimise mast settings.
- Dynamic Rig Tune – Includes real-world sailing assessment with your crew, followed by fine-tuning based on performance.
- Full Service Rig Tune – Combines pre- and post-sailing adjustments plus marked control lines and performance measurements for consistent settings.
These precision rigging services are invaluable for sailors chasing performance gains, improving pointing ability, and balancing helm feel.
Running Rigging, Ropes & Deck Gear
Running rigging wears out, and when it does, performance and safety of your boat can degrade quickly. We stock a wide range of premium ropes (from double braid polyester to high-performance Dyneema and Spectra), and provide expert rope splicing and recovering services to extend rope life or upgrade rig lines.
We also offer deck hardware solutions and can customise layouts to improve ergonomics and sail handling efficiency.
Yacht Maintenance & Management Packages
Beyond rigging itself, Roni offers ongoing maintenance packages to keep your vessel in tip-top shape:
- Casual yacht inspection and reporting
- Permanent cruising service plans
- Complete racing management packages – including rig tension monitoring, annual rig tunes, winch servicing and race-ready preparation for your yacht.
These options add value and convenience for boat owners who want professional care without the hassle of organising multiple services independently.
