About

Founded in 1966, Schaefer Marine designs and manufactures sailboat hardware at 158 Duchaine Boulevard in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Its range runs from blocks to furlers, built with a focus on the forces at work on a sailing yacht.

In late 2016 Schaefer acquired Ideal Windlass and continues its production line, which dates from 1936. The company has added a water jet machine to its shop for custom work. Schaefer is the US distributor for Sea Sure, and Sea Sure distributes Schaefer products in the United Kingdom.
