RSB Rigging Solutions are proud to announce that that have been awarded the certification to grant LEEA approval.

Over the last year, RSB have worked with a number of large motor boats on annual/post installation inspection and testing of their External Access Systems. The riggers at RSB have become highly specialised in projects of this sort, and working along side their sister hydraulic company, have completed these projects on time and in budget to the relevant flag and industry LEEA safety standards. The Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) is established globally as the leading representative body for all those involved in the lifting industry worldwide. Attaining the ability to legally carry out thorough examinations of fall arrest installations and lifting equipment, means that yachts having this work done whilst in Spain will no longer be required to fly in external specialists from abroad in order to carry out these legal obligations.

Steve Branagh, owner and founder of RSB Rigging Solutions states, 'We are the first and only rigging company in Spain to have the ability to survey weight lifting equipment on board yachts as per LEEA standards. This is a landmark event for us as our clients will no longer have the expense of flying in surveyors for the necessary examinations. It will enable projects to be completed in a shorter time period and more cost effectively. We are proud of our riggers and teams for achieving this, and delighted to offer this service to our clients.'
