We started our company in 2012 focussing on one thing, rope. That's why we originally called ourselves Dinghy Rope. We moved to Sailing Chandlery in February 2018.
Since 2012 we've served tens of thousands of customers with a variety of marine and sailing rope, mostly for boats, but sometimes for a new washing line, or that odd DIY job.
The business has also evolved a lot, I sometimes think back to the 5 or 6 reels of Marlow rope we started with and how we now have warehouses full of everything from split pins to full boats available to buy.
However, it's important to note that we still very much focus on ropes and getting you the right product for your boat. We also now offer rope splicing, tapering and other custom work which you might not like to do yourself.
We have over 100 different reels of rope in stock and are still expanding based on demand.
Currently we stock rope by Kingfisher, Gottifredi Maffioli and Marlow. We're also soon to add FSE Robline as feedback from Laser sailors shows the majority of boats are using their ropes for control lines and mainsheets.
In terms of material we stock Dyneema, Polyester, Nylon and Polyprop ropes.
Currently, from the shelf we can supply 1mm through to 12mm. However, every week we source larger ropes for our customers and are always happy to do so.
We naturally sell lots of marine and boat rope every week, the reels are constantly turning with customer orders.
We find the most popular brands are Kingfisher, Maffioli and then Marlow.
Most popular diameter - 4mm rope
Most popular material - polyester rope
Whether you've got a braid on braid halyard which needs copying as a replacement, or whether you need a custom set up on your dinghy we can help!
If you have the lengths and a drawing it makes it a bit easier for us, or we can take your existing product and make a copy.
Our rope work prices are competitive so give us a call or drop us an email for a quote.
To see more ropes please do explore the rope page on our website. You'll find helpful filters where you can see which product can be used for which application.
We are always available on the phone to help support you and answer your rope related questions, we would rather you had the right product the first time.
If you need some rope for your boat then please do give us a call.
Ordered Harken xd kit from another chandlery but didn’t include this vital piece of kit. Thank you for quickly sending this piece of kit so quickly.
Comfortable but with enough grip so they feel like they'll stay on in a capsize (although I haven't experienced that yet). The lenses are good quality with no distortion and the price was really reasonable. Service from Sailing Chandlery was exemplary. Very good value.
Makes a more secure anchorage than a stopper knot
A stock of rope and cordage is essential for the proper function of any sailing club. Floating and non-floating rope are needed equally. This is a good product, at a reasonable price - if bought on the reel.
My first Zhik spray top, but just like the rest of the gear from Zhik the combination of design, material selection and style are spot on.
I’ve been wearing the top in the Dragon, Edinburgh Cup where there has been a rain and significant spray at time. The top has kept me warm and dry. Especially impressed with the neck seal. Dry, yet not constricting.
Boots arrived quickly and were a great fit
Very Good A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Service excellent as always . The pads are great for laser sailing
Great
Just what I was looking for, good to be able to buy any number of toggles I needed.
I bought some kingfisher spliceable rope to replace a continuous control line. It's an easy splice and that's down to the quality of the rope supplied by the Sailing Chandlery.
Great
It’s a nice halyard thing and strong, and looped through itself it has a slim profile. Also I need extra length and sailing chandlery where happy to add it on for me! Greatt!
A perfect match, installed and working well.
I do wish there was a less expensive shipping alternative for your international customers.
great products , great service
