Jimmy Green Marine have been splicing rope and wire since 1981.
Back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, there was very little choice in the local chandlery for yachtsmen who wanted to finish their rigging in style.
Specialist ropes for different rigging applications were not readily available and the concept of colour coding was in its infancy.
By the same token, the inefficient means of terminating ropes by tying a knot was more prevalent than splicing.
Mike Green headed up the first Jimmy Green Rigging Team, collaborating with Marlow and LIROS to perfect the techniques necessary for splicing the new ropes brought to market in the 1980s and 1990s.
Mike instigated the introduction of methodology into the process, making a written record of how each splice should be achieved and finished.
His insistence that every splice was carried out to the same high standard has endured to this day.
In the 1990s the Head Rigger mantle was passed on to Peter, Alistair’s brother in law. Peter continued to oversee all things splicing until 2007 when Mike retired and the overall responsibility was reassigned to James Green, Alistair’s son and a director of the company.
Experience and continuity are important factors in maintaining standards and Peter is still a valuable member of the splicing and rigging team.
Rope manufacturer innovation has been prolific over the last decade.
LIROS and Marlow now produce running rigging ropes that were initially considered only for extreme performance applications, but are now affordable for performance cruising.
James maintains personal contact with all the head technicians at LIROS and Marlow, visiting each factory on a regular basis to check on the latest design developments.
The Jimmy Green Rigging Team are then fully trained in all the latest splicing and finishing techniques to complement these new high-technology ropes.
Set sail with the benefit of Team Jimmy Green expertise. We are confident that you will look forward to our emails.
