I'd be grateful for the firm's name as well.

I did my 33 footer for about £500 all up including swageless fittings and bottle screws.

TS Rigging in Maldon. 26ft Centaur, 6 wires and end fittings in 5 and 6mm £3-400. Sounds like your quote is on the expensive side.

You guys are all getting much better prices than we paid last year! I wonder if the market's changed. We were £650 for a 26 footer, including bronze rigging screws. Most places were a lot higher, some were higher even with SS screws.

Bought a complete set of standing rigging this last winter for a 32' Rival. Including two insulators for the backstay (which were £273 fitted into the stay), the total was £902. This includes forestay @8mm, backstay @7mm, 2 sidestays @7mm and 4 shrouds @6mm all with swaged eyes both ends except the forestay one end only. (furler). Old stays collected, (to verify sizes) new ones and old ones delivered back. I thought that good value.
