DESCRIPTION

A self-tacking jib makes life on board a lot easier, in particular for short handed crews. The jib sheet is led to a car which moves to leeward during the tack with no need to touch the sheet. Tacking is as simple as steering the boat through the wind.

For retro-fit installations on boats ranging from 25' to 45', High Beam tracks with a standard radius and standard length can be ordered from stock. The side consols, deck fittings and a car are added to complete the system. A ball-joint allows for perfect alignment of the track to a 90 grade angle to the direction of load and for an easy installation to the deck or coach side.

Sheet Arragement Options:

 

  • Over the fore deck: This is the simplest and most common arrangement. The sheet is led from the clew, through a single block on the car, through a block at the bow and back to the cockpit.
  • Up the mast: The advantage of leading the sheet up through the mast and back to the cockpit is to keep the foredeck clean from lines. It requires a 2:1 purchase on the sheet and consequently a single/becket block is used on the car. The sheet is led from the car, up the front of the mast and in to the mast through a sheave box installed at a height of 50% of the fore triangle. The sheet exits the mast through a slot fitting and turns through a block at the foot of the mast and back to the cockpit. The deck light and the steaming light on the mast might need to be relocated. Sheet cranes are available for boats fitted with a VPS (Vertical Pole Stowage) system.
