Genoa Cars

Genoa Cars are used for leading sheets from an adjustable deck position, to a cockpit winch.

Our low profile sheet blocks have small diameter wide rollers keeping the sheeting position close to the deck and coping with changes of direction. The Robust spring plungers locate positively in the track holes whilst the knob pull is profiled to minimise rope snarl ups.

The towed car model R2667 is controlled from the cockpit to any position along the track. This method of adjustment is faster and more convenient for racing boats.
