Seldén Code X Gennaker & Code 0 furling system

furling_system

Both the gennaker and the Code 0 take over when the spinnaker cannot be carried any more. They do not need a spinnaker pole, lift or downhaul. Sailing off the wind becomes easy, more efficient and definitely more fun.

Seldén has been manufacturing furling systems since the 80’s and are world market leaders in jib furling and main sail furling. All this experience is put into the Seldén Code X and, as usual, our design focus has been reliable function. Our attention to details combined with low weight makes Seldén Code X easy to handle for the crew.

This was the team’s first attempt at winning the coverted Prince of Wales trophy and the UK National Championship. The 3rd and 4th placed boats also raced using Selden produced carbon masts.

International 14 rigs have evolved greatly over the past few years since the introduction of square-top mainsails increasing the requirement for greater fore and aft stiffness while not compromising on the weight of the mast. The S3 section mast offers low windage and excellent fore and aft stiffness through the profiled section design achieving everything required for maximum performance in a skiff class.
