New Furler old boat.

For my Jeanneau 21 I wanted to retrofit an (additional) furler for the new light wind sails.
Upffront gave very good advice, nice contact, fast and good processing of the order. Highly recommended.

Assistance in Finding a Rare-sized Piece of Hardware

I was seeking a rare-sized set of turnbuckles for the port and starboard staysail stays on my Ta Shing Baba 35, and was happy to discover help from Upffront. Lauren and Aleena could not have been more helpful. And their help continues as we try to identify the exact measurements of the hardware.

I recommend Upffront to all sailboat owners without qualification.

Excellent as always

Excellent as always! When I didn't found the item I was looking for I asked for in the chat and got an immediate respons "the item is in stock but not visible on the shop but I will fix that now". I got a mail shortly after that interaction with a link to my order and it was also a link for the online payment. Within 48 hours I could pick it up at the delivery center near my home adress (in another country that Germany).

I'll be back ;)

Second time purchaser

Second time purchaser, second time happy. I was needing a hard to find replacement part. Nicolas did some research and found it! Yeah!
Nicolas and Aleena kept me informed as to when my package would ship and arrive.
Great success!

Fast, efficient and high quality with competitive pricing

After another well known rigging outfit let me down I contacted Upffront through their web page. Within 10 minutes Cal was on the phone asking what he could do to help. We needed two structural luff ropes made up for Morpheus, a 40' carbon racing trimaran, and we needed them within 3 weeks ready for the next race. Cal was 'on it' from that first conversation and the luff ropes were delivered to the boat a week early! I can honestly say in all my years in the marine industry this is the best service I have come across. They look superbly built too. Thank you to Cal and the team at Upffront for making this happen and getting me out of a tight spot. I will be back.
