  • Downwind Sails Furler

    The first step in selecting the appropriate furler for your needs is to determine the system's safe working load. Recommendations based on boat length typically assume a medium-displacement monohull. However, your choice can be further refined by considering factors such as sail type, sail size, and your sailing style. For boats with a fixed bowsprit, a tack line beneath the drum allows the furler to be easily moved back to the bow for sail changes. This setup also provides precise luff control. For example, a 3:1 friction sheave can be attached to the bottom of the drum for enhanced adjustment. On boats under 35 feet, a 2:1 halyard shackle or 2:1 blocks attached to the swivel spindle is often sufficient for use with a 2:1 halyard.
     
    The simplest setup involves attaching the gennaker drum to the bowsprit with a snap shackle and using a 1:1 halyard. For improved performance sailing, the drum can still be secured with a snap shackle, but a 2:1 halyard provides better luff control and reduces rig compression. For racing, a halyard lock at the masthead reduces mast compression, while a drum on a 3:1 system delivers optimal luff tension control. In addition to the drum and swivel, other essential components of a Gennaker, Smart Code or Code Zero furling system include the torsional cable, the drum's furling line, fairleads, and the double block.
     
    Furling system for Code Zero, Gennaker, Smart Code and Asymmetric Spinnaker. Using furler makes your sail easier to handle than a snuffer and smaller to store when not in use. Horizon Sails offers extremely reliable and functional downwind furlers for use with Code Zero sails and Gennakers. The complete line range fits for small dinghies to custom-made furlers for large yachts and comes in two versions: with fixed tack (code zero, genoa, etc) and with free tack to wind gennakers whitout luff. The drum and head are made from a single piece of aluminum and contain roller thrust bearings featuring the best characteristics for this use. A complete system including a sail with anti-twist rope and firler can be purchased, too. Nowadays, many cruising and racing sailboats appeal to furlers. For safety use and easy control, flying sails require the presence of a furler on board. The research and development of furling systems has long time been prompted by the use of code zero in regattas and gennakers for cruising. Thus, over time, code zero, smart code, gennaker, asymmetric spinnaker, symmetrical spinnakers, staysail without forestay type have become essential cruising sails on our sailboats. This has largely contributed to the distribution of these furlers. Horizon Sails offers a wide choice of furlers from major brands Facnor, Sveggen, Profurl, Ubi, Karver, Allen, adapting to the size of your boat and the sail area.

  • Anti-Twist Luff Ropes

    ANTI TORSION LUFF ROPE

    Custom built Horizon Sails anti-torsion cable for top down furling and furling code sails. The anti-twist luff ropes are custom built to your length requirement. Anti-twist luff rope for flying sails furlers, Gennaker, Code 0 or Asymmetric Spinnaker. Our anti torsion ropes are custom luff lines specifically designed to be used for torque transmission without loss along the cable. Anti-torsion rope has a unique torsional stability that transmits the furling gear rotation direct to the head of the sail. The rope adopts a triple fibre composite constructed to resist torsional forces from furling gear. It has a twisted aramid yarn core that provides the resistance to twisting. Our hardware sewn termination offers compatibility with all majors furlers brands.

     

    To find the right cable for your needs, you must select the appropriate length. For Gennaker, Code Zero, or Smart Code sails where the cable runs inside the luff, the cable length should match the available luff length of the sail. For asymmetric sails with top-down furling, the cable length should correspond to the available hoist length, regardless of the sail's luff length. For top-down furling, choose a cable with a larger diameter. For bottom-up furling, a smaller diameter option is sufficient. If you are buying a cable for an existing furler or sail, it is essential to check that the cable thimbles fit the jaw width and pin diameter of the furler drum and swivel.  

    Torsional cables operate differently depending on the application:  
    - For straight-luffed sails with bottom-up furling (Code Zero, Gennaker): Tensile loads are significantly higher. To minimize drag, cable diameters can be reduced. In this case, since the cable is contained in the luff, after 2 or 3 turns, the sail's leading edge contributes to creating the required torsion.  
    - For asymmetric sails with top-down furling: Cable diameters must be relatively larger compared to their length. These cables are only under load during furling and unfurling phases, with lower overall loads.  

    Furling Mechanisms  
    - Bottom-up furling: The tack of the sail is directly attached to the cable thimble. When the drum begins to rotate, the cable turns, and the sail wraps around the cable.  
    - Top-down furling: The luff of the sail is not attached to the cable. The tack of the sail is mounted on an independent swivel. When the drum begins to rotate, torque is transmitted along the cable's entire length to the top of the sail, where furling starts.  

    Important Note: Although a continuous line furler can operate in both directions, it is better to furl the sail in one direction only. Braided covers are symmetrically designed, but during the first uses, the fibers in the cover align with the torsional load direction. If you furl in both directions, the fibers will constantly shift, breaking down the resin that provides the cable's stiffness.
