Following constructive dialogue with Yachting Monthly, all parties involved have agreed to release this joint statement.

“In our recent test of anchor chain (January 2013 issue), Yachting Monthly failed to offer Jimmy Green Marine the opportunity to explain why a sample of its chain performed relatively poorly in the test. We now understand that this chain sample was sent in error and should not have been part of our test. Indeed, it was part of an old batch that Jimmy Green had decided not to sell at all, due to concerns about quality control, from a supplier that the firm has not used for several years.

 It would have been fairer to Jimmy Green, and more useful for our readers, if we had asked the company to explain the test results before we went to press. We now wish to clarify that Jimmy Green has been selling only premium-quality Grade 40 chain, manufactured in house by Maggi Catena, for a considerable time before the article was published. 

 In response to the article, Jimmy Green Marine published a series of counter-claims relating to Yachting Monthly and the author of the article, Vyv Cox, on its website and in its customer newsletter. Jimmy Green now accepts that there were some inaccuracies in their counter claims and that Mr Cox’s conduct has been diligent and fair.”

Please feel free to get in touch with any questions.

Many thanks

Jimmy Green
