Harken 18 mm Switch Battcar System

Favored by skippers and crew, Harken Battcar systems let you raise, douse, and reef the main instantly from the cockpit, even when close reaching in a big breeze. Battcar systems outperform in-mast or in-boom furling, cost far less, and sails don’t need to be recut. Harken’s award-winning Switch T-Track Battcar system cuts the stack height of mainsails by half, making it much easier for crew to put on sail covers and to connect/disconnect halyards. This simple, yet sophisticated switch system neatly stacks cars side-by-side on top of the boom. The unique switch plate has no moving parts, ensuring an exceptionally reliable and efficient product. 18 mm standard system fits boats: Monohulls 11 - 13.5 m (37-45'); Multihulls 9 - 10.5 m (30-35') 18 mm high-loadsystem fits monohulls 13.5 - 15 m (45 - 50'); Multihulls 10.5 - 12 m (35 - 40').
