C260 - Wichard Marine Profurl C260 Automatic Headsail Furling System

Profurl C260 Automatic Headsail Furling System

The Profurl C260 is specifically engineered for boats ranging from 5 to 7 meters. This innovative system offers a self-contained halyard furling solution that is both cost-effective and easy to install on existing forestays, requiring no maintenance.

Self-Contained Halyard Technology

Designed for lightweight sailboats, particularly those with fractional rigs, the C260 minimizes forestay sag by effectively reducing mast compression. This is achieved by balancing the loads from the halyard and sail.

Simplified Installation

Installation is a breeze as the C260 can be connected directly to the lower swage terminal of the forestay without needing specialized fittings. For boats that are frequently transported or stored on trailers, the C260 can be easily detached into two sections, helping to prevent damage during transportation.

User-Friendly Operation

The halyard runs through a sheave box at the top of the extrusion and returns to a sheave and cam cleat. After hoisting and tensioning the sail, the remaining length of the halyard serves as the furling line.
