Schaefer Marine System / Package

Free-Furling Systems

Model 550, 650

Lightweight furling swivels and drums for jibs, staysails and gennakers that furl on the sail's own luff wire.

Description

Schaefer Free-Furling systems let a jib or staysail be set or furled from the cockpit. The sail furls on its own built-in luff wire, so it can be removed easily. This suits trailerable boats as well as light-air staysails and gennakers on larger boats.

Key features

  • Swivels in clear anodized marine grade aluminum
  • Hi-load Torlon bearings in precision machined races
  • #650 drum and swivel with 5 bearing races
  • Optional cam arm brackets and snap shackle adapters for the System 550 and 650

Applications

  • Jibs on trailerable sailboats
  • Light-air staysails and gennakers on larger boats
