Bill,
I just had Kimberlite re-rigged by Gaetan in Martinique.
They do Amels all the time. When I was there ,69 Amels on the Pontons
Gaeta’s chief rigger has been rigging Amels for 25 years.

Hi Pat, I've changed your thread from rigging to Mack Sails. When we bought Ocean Pearl in 2008 she had a full set of near new Mack sails. We must have done over 30,000 ocean miles before we changed

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Riggers In Trinidad and Martinique
Pat,
I do not know where ACMO buys their wire, or if they make it. Actually, I feel like I don't really know much about rigging wire, except for two things that Ii am certain about:
