Gybe safely with Gyb'Easy, the new Wichard boom brake
Why a boom brake? Gybing remains one of the most challenging operations on a sailing boat even for experienced sailors and can possibly generate injuries and material damage. Gyb'Easy is an efficient and safe solution to reduce such risks.
Concept: Thanks to the frictions of the specific line called Gyb'Flex passing over the boom brake, the boom is allowed to gybe smoothly and without jerks. The more the line passes over the openings, the more the friction is increased and hence the brake efficiency.
Settings of the Gyb'Easy: The adjustment is made thanks to the tension of the line. 3 different positions exist for a better adaptation of the mainsail and wind conditions.
Easy installation: It takes a few minutes to install it on a eye strap of the boom. Two different fittings can be implemented to fit with all the deck configurations.

Six sizes to suit yachts up to 12m/40ft LOA
Patented flexing spring provides fast response and a constant force for vang efficiency
The boomstrut's lightweight, low-profile design features two flexible coated fibreglass rods which provide the force to support the boom. Pulling the boom downwith a conventional kicker causes the Boomstrut to flex upwards; releasing straightens the rods, thereby lifting and supporting the boom.
Maintenance-free, durable design
Eliminates friction and sliding parts.
Improved performance
Less weight and windage
Easy installation
There's no need to replace your existing hardware - the Boomstrut mounts independently inside the existing kicking strap tackle.
Simple-to-follow instructions
The Boomstrut is supplied with complete fitting instructions and more comprehensive details are available on our website, www.bartonmarine.com.
Mast fitting can use existing luff groove
To eliminate drilling, the Boomstrut's mast bracket can be slotted into your mast's luff groove.
Contoured boom fitting
The Boomstrut's boom bracket is contoured to fit both round and flat boom profiles.
Carefully designed & constructed
The Bartom Boomstrut has been carefully designed and constructed to eliminate sharp edges, minimise parts and provideprovide trouble-free installation and use.

The Nordic Smart Boom is available for new as well as existing booms and is made customized in carbon fibre to keep its weight down to an absolute minimum. The primary purpose of the Nordic Smart Boom is that of "picking up" the mainsail when the sail is lowered down on the boom, the boom tarpaulin is zipped, and the sail is stowed away.
Nordic smart Boom primarily targets boats ranging between 30 and 50 ft.; above that, we would recommend the Park Avenue boom. No matter if you have a new or older boat and you are looking for easy handling, a refined look, the Nordic Smart Boom will fulfill your needs.

The carbon fibre boom distinguishes itself by having a low weight, high strength, and a unique design and appearance. Our design team will take all the needs and specific wishes into the design of the boom
Primarily, there are two types of carbon fibre booms. The ordinary boom, known from small yachts, and the Park Avenue boom, used on the big mega yachts on which the size of the mainsail is so bigand heavy that it will require the boom to have ”wings” which will carry the sail when lowered, generally supported by lazy jacks.
Nordic Mast has its own moulds and tools for making carbon fibre booms. Nordic Masts use the same technique and engineering principles for the boom structures as we do for our masts. Nordic Mast is only using leading products in the making of our boom.
Small but very fine details on the PARK AVENUE BOOM as he incorporated track for the boomcover and the suncover are two of the standard features on the product.

EXTENDABLE BOWSPRIT KIT CARBON OR ALLUMINIUM
(FOR ASYMMETRIC SAILS, GENNAKER, MPS, DRIFTER AND CODE "0").
Indispensable accessory for correcting use of any asymmetric sails. It facilitates rapid gybing and gives the gennaker more clear air, improving performance. It can be easly fitted on every yachts from 25' to 53' feet, by means of a stainless steel bow bracket, fixed on the deck to the extreme bow of the boat.
The inner end of the bowsprit, is fitted with a composite pole end fitting and in front of it a folding padeye shall be fastened to the deck. Our bowsprits, are build in anodized aluminium "Anticorodal 6060 TA16 -
UNI6063 9006" or Carbon, constructed in one piece aver male tooling using
unidirectional pre-preg standard modulus carbon and autoclave cured. The gennaker tackline running through the bowsprit, and leaving from outboard head, purposely rounded, is free to orient in all directions.

The demand for lighter masts (and booms) shows no sign of abating as owners request ever-lighter displacement cruising yachts. Anticipating this trend, Rondal became involved in the carbon fibre field at an early stage. Assisted by the Dutch Aerospace Laboratory at the design stage, it is believed that Rondal has chosen the best way of production.
Characteristic for the Rondal carbon fibre mast is that, whatever the length, the mast is built in one piece. Building the mast in one piece has the huge advantage that the fibres in the 0° layers run from top to bottom without any interruption in the fibres. All compression forces can be guided safely through the laminate.
When decided to request price information please send a deck- and sailplan. With this information we can inform you better.

Since 1989, Nordic Mast has been building masts in carbon fibre for yachts ranging from 30 to 100 ft. Each mast is built to the specific calculations and dimensioning prepared by our engineers, based on the data of the boat and the requirements of our customer. Nordic Mast is now capable of building masts for yachts of up to approximately 125 ft.
Production of carbon fibre masts has become a Nordic Mast specialty, attaching great importance to details and customer requirements. The integrated components of this mast are all made of carbon fibre, providing optimal strength, weight, and corrosion resistance.
The benefits of a carbon fibre mast are manifold; in addition to the balance between strength and weight the life of a carbon fibre mast is basically infinite. This overcomes the traditional problems of aluminium masts in terms of oxidation and metal fatigue, which will not occur with carbon fibre.

Carbon composites are known for their:
High fatigue tolerance
Stability under environmental exposure
Exceptional strength to weight
All these features make carbon composites attractive not just for the construction of mast tubes and fittings, but also for standing rigging.
Composite Rigging installed the first full set of Element C6 carbon composite rigging on the Farr 52 Georgia in Auckland in March 2003. This set includes all shrouds, jumpers, running backstays and headstay. These pieces now have over five years of service without incident.
Since that time EC6 has been installed on a variety of yachts ranging from 30’ sport boats to 50+ meter Megayachts.
The first set of EC6+ continuous rigging was installed on the Farr 60 Numbers in the spring of 2005. More recently the Open 60 Paprec-Virbac won the Barcelona doubled handed nonstop round the world race with EC6+ carbon shrouds. Post-race testing confirmed that there was no strength degradation. The rigging has been refurbished and reinstalled for the next event.

We have developed our own computer controlled manufacturing method in which prepreg (pre-impregnated) tows are wound onto a mandrel (cylinder) prior to oven curing. This method enables us to exercise full control over every stage of the manufacturing process and guarantee products of consistently high quality. One of the big advantages of this Selden production method is that it enables us to achieve sufficient durability in the areas subject to the greatest loads and wear.

Class rules will usually define whether spinnaker poles in carbon fibre may be used. Carbon fibre poles are typically used on every size boats as they are far easier to handle and offer amazing strenghts for weight advantages.
All spinnaker poles are available painted to our customer's colour specification.
Carbon fibre spinnaker poles are available as standard in "raw" carbon fibre, clear coated, or painted. Carbon fibre poles are now available with the logo and name of the boat, as well as other information, cast in the laminate. This is an added advantage as this branding is a preventive measure against theft of the pole.
