Small boat blocks > 2.00''/3.00'' Hexa-Cat Bases

Use Hexa-Cat bases to build powerful mainsheet systems and tackles. The Hexa-Cat's upper and lower blocks swivel independently so the cam block pivots to face the trimmer even when the main is sheeted hard.

Combine the 193 little Hexa-Cat base with big bullet blocks or the 170 Hexa-Cat base with 2.25" blocks for purchases from 5:1 to 8:1.

Use for:
