This furling system not only enhances convenience but also improves your boat´s performance by allowing for quick adjustments to sail area, maintaining optimal sail shape and boat balance.

Main Features for Unmatched Performance:

The HARKEN 0 ESP 6.5´ Foil is packed with features engineered for the marine environment. The system utilizes strong and durable foil sections that securely hold your sail´s luff, ensuring a smooth and snag-free hoist. A key innovation is the integrated sail feeder, which incorporates thoughtfully designed Wings that expertly guide the sail luff into the foil groove, preventing jams and ensuring a perfect set every time you hoist your headsail. The independent head and tack swivels are a critical feature, allowing the sail to furl evenly from top to bottom. This maintains an efficient sail shape when reefed, preventing baggy, performance-robbing shapes and giving you better control and speed. The single-groove foil provides a clean and aerodynamic leading edge for your headsail, contributing to better upwind performance. Every component is meticulously designed to work in harmony, delivering the simple, elegant performance Harken is famous for.
