Profurl C260 Headsail Furling System
The Profurl C260 is a state-of-the-art headsail furling system specifically designed for boats ranging from 5 to 7 meters. It is a self-contained halyard furling solution that provides an affordable and straightforward way to enhance your sailing experience. Installation is hassle-free as it can be mounted directly onto the existing forestay without the need for complex tools or maintenance.
Innovative Halyard System
This system is particularly advantageous for lightweight, fractionally rigged sailboats. It effectively reduces forestay sag through its innovative self-contained halyard system, minimizing mast compression while supporting the halyard and sail loads.
Simplified Installation
The C260 can be easily attached to the lower swage terminal of the forestay, eliminating the need for specialized fittings. For boats that are frequently transported, the system can be separated into two sections, significantly lowering the risk of damage during transit.
User-Friendly Operation
To use the C260, simply hoist and tension the sail. The halyard runs over a sheave box at the top of the extrusion, returning down to a sheave and cam cleat. The extra length of the halyard then doubles as the furling line, allowing for seamless operation when furled or unfurled.
The Wichard Marine Profurl C260 Headsail Furling System (part number C2608) is a self-contained halyard furling solution designed for sailboats between 5 and 7 meters. This system is suitable for IT buyers managing hardware procurement for marine applications, particularly for lightweight, fractionally rigged sailboats. It addresses the need for an efficient headsail furling mechanism that reduces forestay sag and minimizes mast compression, supporting both halyard and sail loads. Installation is straightforward, as the C260 mounts directly onto an existing forestay without requiring specialized tools or ongoing maintenance. Its design allows for the halyard to double as the furling line, simplifying operation. For vessels that are frequently transported, the system's ability to separate into two sections helps mitigate potential transit damage.
