Full mainsail set : Above a certain area, a fullbatten mainsail needs to be fitted with ball bea-ring cars for more comfortable cruising. Inaddition to Lazy-jacks, Facslide® allows easyhoisting, lowering and reefing of the mainsail.Furthermore, the new reefing locks completescunningly this car and track device. For main-sails without full batten, the Facnor CF furlinggear remains an alternative equipment.
