Sailboat furler LS LX RX

headsailabove deck

Like the Facnor carbon furling systems on board of Jean Luc Van Den Heedes 80 footer, the Ls/Lx/Rx drum and swivel are fitted with a bearing box (see above). This was tested over ocean races under loads up to 20 to 30 times higher than a 30ft cruising boat. Even under high halyard tension furling remains easy. This innovative system is now available for every boat thanks to Facnor continuous development.
