Argonaut Rowing Club
Rigging Kit
Regular price
$29.00
Every rower must have a basic rigging kit for regattas. This is so you are able to help your crew rig up and de-rig boats efficiently on race day. When everyone has the right tools on hand, boats get on and off the trailer faster, adjustments are easier, and you can quickly solve problems without needing to borrow gear from others.
Each kit includes:
- Two × 7/16” imperial wrenches
- One × 10mm metric wrench
- Allen key with removable plastic handle attachment
- Concept2 Oar Rigging Tool for adjusting grips and collar bands on oars
- Naming labels for identifying and personalising each item
The slim belt bag makes it possible for a coxswain (or others) to safely carry essential tools out on the water in case something needs tightening or adjusting once the boat has already launched.
This kit contains standard fixed spanners. Some members use ratchet wrenches, however these can easily over-tighten and damage fittings. Remember, tighten to "two-fingers of tightness".
