DESCRIPTION

OWS (Outer Wheel slider) is an excellent upgrade from traditional sail slides to reduce friction when hoisting and dousing the main sail. The depth and the shape of the slug is designed for earlier models of Seldén and Kemp sections (E-sections and D-sections used 1977-2002). The four wheels roll on the aft side of the mast section while the slug slides inside the luff groove This car will also fit a great number of mast sections from John Mast, Soromap, Sparcraft and Z-Spars
