The end of an era — and the beginning of the next.

A look at our rigging team recently stepping the rig of the final Balance 442 to be launched@at Royal Cape Yacht Club

It has been a privilege to work alongside Balance | Luxury Performance Multihulls over the years, designing, manufacturing and stepping the rigs for this award-winning model. As the last 442 takes to the water, we’re already looking forward to the next chapter — and seeing the first Balance 464 under sail.

Fair winds to the final 442.

Built in-house, down to the details.

At Sparcraft Masts, much of the rig and component manufacturing process happens under one roof – from fabrication and machining to finishing, rigging and quality control, backed by more than three decades of experience.

Here’s a quick look at just two examples in our factory: crossbeam end fittings in production, followed by spreader brackets in our anodising booth as part of the finishing process.

It’s this control over the detail that helps us maintain the quality and consistency expected across every Sparcraft rig.

Always rewarding to see the award-winning Vision 444 ES from Vision Yachts doing what she was designed to do.

Sparcraft Masts works closely with Vision Yachts on the design and manufacture of the rig package, including the mast, Hayrack boom, standing and running rigging, crossbeam, longeron with integrated anchor launch system, Profurl manual genoa furler and Facnor manual screecher furler.

A beautiful sailing catamaran, out where she belongs.

From factory floor to final fit.

This reel follows the rig package for St Francis 500 Hull 2 as it leaves our Sparcraft factory, heads to St Francis Catamarans, and is stepped.

The full Sparcraft package includes the mast, boom, standing and running rigging, crossbeam, longeron and furlers - all engineered to work together as an integrated sailing system.

It’s always a pleasure working alongside the team at St Francis Catamarans as another bluewater cruiser takes shape.

Precision in every weld. Strength in every rig.

Behind every mast system is a team of skilled hands making sure every component is built to perform. Here, one of our Sparcraft welders is fabricating a mast step (T-bar) - a critical part of the rig structure that transfers load and anchors performance.

It’s this level of craftsmanship, accuracy and experience that goes into every Sparcraft rig package.
