What can I say. Fantastic service, friendly and know their stuff. Proud to be part of the VR Team.

Vr is a chandlery with a personal, friendly service, that knows whats best for you. Vr has a huge range of sailing kit and gear and has the best advice out there. Would definitely buy again.

VR is _the_ 21st century chandlers. Always with a smile and encouragement, no matter what you sail or how well ;-)

They've huge experience of supplying dinghy sailors with the things they need when they're first stariting out at their local club right through to advanced solutions when campaigning internationally. Their knowledge and ability to supply is superb. Customer service is second to none.

These guys will bend over backwards to get you what you need at impressive speed!

Thank you guys, customer service and quality outstanding, looking forward see you again and thanks for all your help!

Proud to be part of the Race Team. Having been on both sides of VR- customer and behind the counter- the amount of work and effort that goes into each customer individually is astonishing. The care Simon puts into individually catering for each customer is pretty exemplary. Good stock, good knowledge, epic customer service.

Once again Virtual Rigger save the day, Excellent service from Simon & the team, Well done. Thanks for all the effort.
