Michael Reardon of Seaway, who offer Future Fibres' PBO as a standard upgrade package for their Shipman range, commented: "We love PBO rigging! It can save a huge amount of weight aloft, making our carbon cruising yachts stiffer and lighter. We choose Future Fibres as they are the industry leaders with over 100 boats and no-one else has anywhere near their level of experience."
