A new generation of downwind furlers - loaded with new features
Seldén introduces the second generation of downwind furlers —the CXr—building on the success
of our popular CX and GX furlers, now enhanced with several new features.
CXr – “r” for Ratchet.
The concept behind the ratcheting drum is twofold: to prevent unintentional unfurling during hoisting,
and to make furling the sail significantly less exhausting.


Before unfurling, the ratchet mechanism preventing the sail from unfurling unintentionally, must be
unlocked. To do this, make a short and distinct pull on the furling line in the same direction as the
direction you want the drum to spin.
Imagine you’re looking at the drum head-on from aft:
• If you want the drum to spin clockwise, pull the line from the starboard side of the drum.
• If you want it to spin counterclockwise, pull from the portside.


What makes the system even more convenient is that the ratchet works in both directions. It automatically
adapts to the direction you choose—you don’t need to decide in advance. Just grab the furling
line and pull: the sail will furl smoothly, regardless of the direction.
