Angus McKay

Project Manager

Angus was born in Australia, and grew up with the ocean as a consistent outlet for both leisure and professional activities. He has been sailing since he was able to walk and has raced everything from lasers, 49ers, skiffs, and offshore race boats, to multimillion dollar super yachts. As Angus says “I wanted to become a rigger from a very young age. I was always interested in masts and how they were stepped and set up so it all just fell into place when I started working for Noakes Boatyard in Sydney Australia 16 years ago.” Angus first joined RSB Rigging in 2018 before he moved to the United States in early 2020 to get married and take on a management position in a rigging company in Annapolis. After 3 years in the US he is now back in Mallorca with RSB, operating as a senior rigger and project manager.
