Sailboat Refit: The Excellence of Custom Fittings and Hardware by WoodSpars

WoodSpars reinvents nautical restoration with bespoke 316L stainless steel solutions, combining modern performance with respect for authenticity for all types of rigging.

For owners of classic or modern sailboats, renovation is often a major technical challenge: how to replace obsolete or hard-to-find hardware while ensuring reliability and aesthetics? Faced with the limitations of standard equipment, WoodSpars provides an expert response with its custom fitting design and manufacturing service.

With over 15 years of experience in mast manufacturing, the French workshop masters the entire metal production chain for rigging. Using exclusively 316L stainless steel (marine grade) for its exceptional resistance to corrosion, WoodSpars designs critical parts that perfectly adapt to the specific constraints of each vessel:

Mastheads and anchor points: Robust parts engineered to withstand the considerable loads of standing rigging.

Spreaders and attachments: Brackets and intermediate fittings optimized for superior load distribution.

Mast-Deck and Boom connections: From mast bases to goosenecks, every joint is machined for flawless strength and fluid movement.

Hardware and finishing: Mast winches, fairleads, blocks, and custom rails.

Beyond simple identical reproduction, WoodSpars analyzes and upgrades original parts to offer increased safety and lasting performance, without ever distorting the boat's character. Whether for a racing unit or a heritage yacht, WoodSpars' bespoke solutions guarantee perfect integration and an impeccable finish.
