The Small Boat Underdeck Furling Unit is an ideal solution for sportboats and daysailers ranging from 4.8 m to 9 m (16 to 30 ft). This system features a drum located beneath the deck, which lowers the tack height to maximize usable sail area. An optional hoistable ball bearing halyard swivel can be installed on the headstay, allowing you to raise or lower the sail without removing the headstay. The swivels operate independently of the headstay, enabling separate tensioning of the luff from the mast rake.
Application: Designed specifically for sportboats and daysailers with lengths between 4.8 m and 9 m (16 to 30 ft).
Drum Placement: The furling drum is positioned beneath the deck, resulting in a lower tack height that maximizes available sail area.
Optional Swivel: A hoistable ball bearing halyard swivel can be installed on the headstay, permitting sail raising and lowering without the need to remove the headstay.
Independent Tensioning: The swivels function independently of the headstay, allowing the luff to be tensioned separately from the mast rake.
