Furling Systems > Small Boat Furling
Harken Small Boat furling systems allow the dinghy or trailerable cruising sailor to set and furl the jib from the cockpit. Use the Below-Bridle furling on catamarans up to 20' (6 m) that use bridle wires. The furling drum on these units is located below the wire bridle to keep the foot of the sail low.The drums and halyard swivels of these furling systems feature multiple stacked races of Delrin® or Torlon® bearings to ensure smooth rotation under load. All Small Boat furling systems require a jib with a luff wire properly seized to the sail.
