Workshops & Seminars

Southbound Cruising Services is committed to outfitting your yacht beyond the highest industry standards. But no matter how “ready” your boat is – for racing, cruising or ocean sailing – you’ll get that much more enjoyment out of it when you understand how it all works. Any boat’s mast, sails, rigging and hull are composed of complex systems that interact with complex forces – wind in the sails, waves on the hull, stress on the rigging – and the educated sailor will get the best performance out of their boat.

We regularly offer seminars and workshops on all aspects of yacht rigging, including rig tuning and inspection, running rigging and splicing and synthetic rigging applications. Please let us know how we can help your club organize an informative seminar.

Join us at the 2010 Annapolis Sailboat Show on the water aboard the Apogee 51 Arcadia. Southbound has performed many upgrades and services on this proven ocean voyaging yacht.

Also join us Friday night after the show at the Marriot Hotel for a 3-hour rigging seminar which will touch on all of those topics and more. Click here for more info and to register.
