Colligo Marine keeps doing the impossible! Or so it seems

We keep hearing Dyneema can't be used for standing rigging. Yet, Colligo Marine has provided standing rigging now for over 800 boats.
The truth is there are more than 5 different types of Dyneema fibers available and then there are hundreds of braiders that make rope with various strand size, braid angles, post process treatments, etc. There are literally thousands of Dyneema options out there to choose from. Choosing the right Dyneema Fiber, the correct line, and treating it correctly is the secret to our success.
It's not impossible, it's just physics and proper engineering.
If you want the safest in synthetic standing rigging available just give us a call!
Fully inspectable (safest option), 1/4 the weight of steel wire systems, no corrosion, and DIY friendly. 1/5 the cost of Carbon standing rigging.
See the website for a list of boats that we have rigged and references from customers and riggers.
