We started our company in 2012 focussing on one thing, rope. That's why we originally called ourselves Dinghy Rope. We moved to Sailing Chandlery in February 2018.
Since 2012 we've served tens of thousands of customers with a variety of marine and sailing rope, mostly for boats, but sometimes for a new washing line, or that odd DIY job.
The business has also evolved a lot, I sometimes think back to the 5 or 6 reels of Marlow rope we started with and how we now have warehouses full of everything from split pins to full boats available to buy.
However, it's important to note that we still very much focus on ropes and getting you the right product for your boat. We also now offer rope splicing, tapering and other custom work which you might not like to do yourself.
We have over 100 different reels of rope in stock and are still expanding based on demand.
Currently we stock rope by Kingfisher, Gottifredi Maffioli and Marlow. We're also soon to add FSE Robline as feedback from Laser sailors shows the majority of boats are using their ropes for control lines and mainsheets.
In terms of material we stock Dyneema, Polyester, Nylon and Polyprop ropes.
Currently, from the shelf we can supply 1mm through to 12mm. However, every week we source larger ropes for our customers and are always happy to do so.
We naturally sell lots of marine and boat rope every week, the reels are constantly turning with customer orders.
We find the most popular brands are Kingfisher, Maffioli and then Marlow.
Most popular diameter - 4mm rope
Most popular material - polyester rope

If you have the lengths and a drawing it makes it a bit easier for us, or we can take your existing product and make a copy.

If you need some rope for your boat then please do give us a call.
Bought for my son. He was delighted with it!
I did wonder how I would change the battery on my timer and this kit s the answer !. I race land yachts and do a two minute rolling start which can be rather mad it times so i need that battery !
Fit ok and feels well padded on sole compared to my old worn out boots
Having thoroughly enjoyed a week's training at the Lyme Regis Sea School this phrase is indelibly printed on my sub conscience (the instructors will be pleased to learn) so to have this mug to remind me each morning at breakfast is a treat.
Good quality product worn well first season.
Reliable and delivered on time as stated. Workmanship is very good and the new spinnaker works a treat. Thank you

The Zihk Sailing kit bag is very well-made and much more practical than my rucksack. The ordering process was slick and the delivery was fast. I’m looking forward to my next sailing trip with this product. Good price too, thank you!
