Emergency Rigging Cutter: during an emergency at sea, safety always comes first! In a dangerous situation such as a broken mast, losing your rig quickly can prevent the boat from sinking. Although yachting experts advise that cutting away the rig is often the first step to be taken, real life scenarios show that due to the forces required this may be nearly impossible, even with a full-size pair of manual cutters.
However, using high-pressure hydraulic technology, our emergency cutters have been specially designed to cut rod and wire rigging, even when made of the most advanced materials.
Holmatro emergency cutters include hand-, bettery and remote-operated models with integrated or seperate hydraulic pumps. All types are quick and easy to operate, even in the toughest sailing conditions.
