Why should cruising sails be second-class citizens? Why shouldn't a good cruising sail be able to do more than go up and down and remain intact as a triangle? Quantum believes that cruising sails are an even more demanding design challenge, and demand the most sophisticated solutions:
- They must be rugged, reliable, and easy to maintain.
- They must work in all conditions with a minimum of effort.
- They should put us in control instead of the elements, helping to contain heel and minimize helm.
- Above all, they should make our boat sail, bringing us the sheer pleasure of our sport.
We have a more demanding definition of performance...At Quantum, every cruising sail is engineered to bring lasting joy.

By aligning the panels (widths) at best of the direction envisaged of the efforts requesting the sail, the cut tri-optimal of sail making Elvstrom Sails allows a significant profit in versatility on a genoa sail on furler.
In the small airs, lighter, the more reactive genoa sail watch.
In the medium, its more stable profile makes it more powerful.
In the breeze, its resistance to the deformation (taken hollow) improves quality of rolling up, therefore profile. It is a profit in performance, but also in safety (aptitude to be made near).
Declined in version Offshore sport boat (associate with radial a Hydranet roving will spectra polyester) for the intensive and/or deep-sea programs of navigation, or in version Club (associate with a roving Polyester sandwich, film mylar, taffeta of protection) for the program of mixed navigation race/cruising or more simply for the skippers wishing as well as possible to exploit the potential of their boats, the tri-optimal genoa sail can in addition grow rich by many options (Return of nerve of fall by the edge, bandages UV color with the choice, correction of Eflex hollow or Zipfurl, etc...).

Equipped with completions adapted to a traditional program of navigation pleasure, associated with a horizontal cut and a roving dacron high tenacity, the genoa sail on furler Coastal Elvstrom Sails will be the tool "without preoccupations" with your week end and your holidays.
This same genoa sail is declined in addition in completions Offshore (completions intended for a deep-sea and/or intensive use) and can grow rich by many options (band UV color with the choice, correction of Eflex hollow or Zipfurl, etc...

New aluminium reels with different line capacity (30mt. for model 30 and 50mt. for model 50). The spool is entirely made in anticorodal anodized aluminium. These reels also feature two metal brushes which eliminate friction with the shaft and an innovative anti-tangle system low profile arm.

"Half enclosed" reel available in two versions: 30 or 50 mt 1,5 mm line capacity. Extendable handle to reduce the size of the reel and steel sliding line guide. The spool has two bushes which eliminate the friction on the spool shaft. Complete with a drag system which keeps the line in tension even with the friction completely open.
Movement
The movement of standard plastic reels is usually very rough. The problem is that the plastic spool rotates on a plastic shaft and this “plastic on plastic” situation creates friction, resulting in an uneven movement. Omersub has solved this problem on Match reels by inserting two brass bushings on the body of the reel. This way the movement is made “plastic on metal” resulting in a perfectly smooth rotational movement.
Retractable Handle
Match 30 and Match 50 feature a retractable handle, operated by a metal spring, greatly reducing the overall dimensions of the reel when not operated.
Locking friction and drag system
The reels are equipped with a classic standard friction which holds the reel in a locked position. In addition, the reels also feature a drag system which keeps the line in tension even when the friction is completely open.
Line guide
A small steel line guide which is free to slide, in a plastic guide on a longitudinal axe, allows the line to scroll out smoothly.

The ONE reels are characterized by their reversible vertical winding and by their folding arm.
The shape of these reels is particularly small and clean, in order to limit any disturbances while fishing, and reduce imbalances that reels can give to spearguns.
The vertical position, the winding roll, and the special “line holder” make it practically impossible for tangling to occur.The friction created by the wide surface area leads to the blocking of the drum, or it can be quickly opened to take advantage of the traction of the fish.
The stainless steel recovery arm, although it is long and solid in order to give leverage when reeling in larger fish, does not create any problems, and is hidden away within the drum while fishing.
The limited size of the drum takes into consideration the high performance levels of modern 1.5 mm lines.
The ONE 50 model holds about 50 meters and the ONE 80 model holds about 80 meters.
They are reversible so they can also be used by left-handed people. The reels are sold, in series, with slides that can be set up on ONE spearguns, and Omersub, Cayman series.
The ONE reels can also be equipped on wooden spearguns, by screwing them directly on the barrel, without slides.
The ONE 50 model and ONE 80 model are both sold in camouflage green version with Dyneema line in series, and in the classic black version, without line.

The Vertical Batten Mainsail offers additional sail area for in mast furling and Vektron™ offers the very best of woven sail cloth stability through the use of liquid crystal Vectranâ fibres.
The Vertical Batten Mainsail system and Hood patented Vektron™ sailcloth puts high performance back into the furling mainsail. The additional sail area on the roach makes the mainsail up to 20% larger than a hollow leech in-mast furling mainsail, thereby optimising the overall aerodynamics. Another key feature are its round vertical linked carbon and vinylester resin full length battens, which are linked together with varying stiffness, designed especially for the furling function. The benefit extends to the maintained boat speed through improved aerodynamics and more controllable sail shape through reefing. This unique furling mainsail will point higher and perform with increased boat speed off wind and provide an improved reefing technique.

Large the Sails Elvstrom Sails EMS is an answer tested to the owners wishing to enjoy the comfort of a furler of large sail in the mast, while preserving a round of fall making it possible as well as possible to exploit the aptitudes of their sailboats.
Equipped with three to four vertical battens, it profits from specific completions of bracket allowing the extra thickness generated by the battens not to block the system of rolling up, for a maximum safety.
Presented here in completions Offshore sport boat Tri-Optimal (roving Radial Hydranet Spectra Polyster), this large sail is also declined in version Coastal X Cut (a completion more adapted to current a pleasure use, associated with a horizontal cut Dacron High tenacity), in lathing EMS + (long battens + intermediate short battens) or without battens.

In-mast furling units are usually found on older cruising boats but still a very popular choice for the offshore market. They offer a very convenient way to furl the sail and offer a user friendly shorthanded solution to the cruising sailor.
Traditionally the inmast furling mainsail was viewed as an inefficient sail for windward performance but with the solution of vertical battens performance is greatly improved.

Particularly adapted to the configurations of gréement of the modern boats of cruisings, the gennakers Cruising Elvstrom Sails stick in priority to present a stability report/ratio of profile/the most efficient possible weight.
Indeed, this report/ratio will determine all the versatility of your gennaker. Stable of profile, it will enable you to go back effectively to the wind, becoming thus an ideal complement of your genoa sail on furler in the small airs with the paces close to the wind.
Leger, it will allow you to deviate more easily from the wind.
This result is obtained thanks to a tri cut optimal and with a roving selection going from nylons 1.5 OZ (65 gr/m2) to polyester 2.2 OZ for the heavier units or more grosses.
Lastly, your gennaker Elvstrom Sails is of course equipped with an anti-torsion bolt rope making it compatible with the use of a drum.

The range Gennaker Racing Elvstrom Sails was developed to adapt as well as possible to the configurations of gréement modern and evolutions of gauge, which tend to limit surfaces of the genoa sails more and more.
More specifically intended for the boats of class "Center console", code 0 is very close to a light genoa sail on the level of the forms.
Code 5 as for him will be connected more with an asymmetrical spi and is intended for the measured units IRC which will regard it as a spinnaler and not as a genoa sail (as it would be the case of a code 0, at the price of a heavy penalization).
Both have jointly to give a maximum of horses to the paces of reaching (90-60° of the wind), to even see, for code 0, with near in the small airs.
One and the other is in addition equipped with an anti-torsion bolt rope by allowing the use associated with a drum.
The considerable loads applied to these sails bring to privilege solutions such as sails with composite roving panel (polyester, kevlar or carbon).
The most demanding projects will not hesitate as for them to call upon qualities of stability of exclusive technology Epex.

In the case of optical fibres, it is wrong to call the mechanical and optical parts, which integrate with the splints and which serve to aesthetically define and anchor the former, "spot lights." But ALTRALUCE focuses its production on their manufacturing quality and possible forms and finishing.
The same is valid for the lighting devices, which are optical elements applied to the splint, which concentrate or diffuse light emitted by the latter.
An important detail is that the optical fibre spot lights can be matched to spot lights, spots and the led footlight.

Constructed from aluminium, hard anodised and built to last. The robust drum house, hydraulic drive and oilbath gearbox ensure virtually silent running and hardly any maintenance.
The drum takes a single layer of rope and its length is calculated depending on the necessary working length and diameter.
A stainless steel spindle alongside the drum moves a car with a sheave at the precise speed relative to the drum and rope diameter, stowing the rope neatly on the drum. There are limit switches at each end of the spindle which stop the winch when the car reaches its limit.
Six sizes of reel winch are available, ranging from 1500kg to 18.000kg pulling force.
When decided to request price information please send a deck- and sailplan. Also we would need line load and length.
With this information we can inform you better.
