Cleats 66 Leaders in every detail All our standard rigs are custom made Every Seldén rig is carefully thought out, down to the last detail. All the way from the materials and functions of the different parts of
the rig, to dimensioning the right rig for each individual boat.
Each individual component contributes to the performance of the
whole rig. That is the Seldén way ? experienced yachtsmen behind
every aspect of design, product development and production. Extruded aluminium is an excellent material for making masts. This is where Seldén has earned its reputation as world leader in mast
making. Today Seldén offers a full range of masts and rig equipment
in both aluminium and carbon including booms, spinnaker poles,
Rodkicker rigid vangs, furling systems and rig fittings. All rigs are
custom-made, through every calculation and detail, for each individual
boat. We know how much depends on the rig, and there is no room
for compromise.
