Over the winter, Royal Huisman sailing yacht Twizzle has gone through an extensive refit, comprising a full repaint of hull as well as spars. During this process, the rigs and EC6 standing rigging of superyacht Twizzle have been fully serviced by RSB Rigging Solutions, in preparation for a busy summer season.

Steve Branagh, the founder of RSB Rigging Solutions, says: “The weather gods have not been kind to us recently, with high winds meaning the stepping procedure on the 57 meter ketch Twizzle had to be delayed for a few days. However with a 12 hour window popping up in the forecast, the cranes were booked and the prep work was completed for the big day. Thursday arrived grey and overcast with intermittent rain, but light winds meaning the RSB team could set about re-stepping both masts before the breeze returned.

With the help of Andy and Nancy Kitchener (7C Rigging) and the on-board crew the operation was completed with no problems and by 5 in the afternoon the boat was heading back to her berth before the breeze returned over night.”
