Headsail Handling Systems

Harken roller furling systems are available for virtually any size boat and any type of use, from recreational sailing to racing. A Harken small boat furler is an ideal choice for dinghies or trailerable boats making it easy for a solitary sailor to furl or set the jib safely. Harken cruising jib reefing and furling units offer the ability to control unfurling, furling and reefing from the cockpit, making them especially useful in a blow or when maneuvering in a strange or crowded harbor. Underdeck furlers place the drum below the deck to maximize sail area by reducing the tack height. Accessories are also available, such as ball bearings to reduce friction, single-groove round foils to stand up to extreme loads when reefing and furling lines.
