Find vetted riggers & sailmakers serving Sarasota, FL and the surrounding Florida, USA area. All free to browse, free to message, free to hire.
Sarasota Bay and the surrounding barrier islands — Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Lido Key — support an active boating community with a strong sailboat presence. The local yards handle haul-outs, rigging work and engine service for everything from weekender sailboats to coastal cruisers.
Rigging holds the mast up and the sails set. A failed swage, a corroded turnbuckle or a blown-out sail at the wrong moment can end a race or an ocean crossing. The rigger you choose needs to know the loads, the hardware and the specific rig design on your boat.
