Highlighting more than 30 years of experience in motorised sail furlers, the new NDE2 models have been designed to give enhanced comfort, performance and reliability, with a sleek & modern look. The range will cover an extensive variety of boat sizes from 9 to + 22m: 4 models – for forestays diameter from 10 to 22mm. For the first time, technology and affordability are brought to medium size boats.

The 2 smaller models (C450 & C500) are based on multi-motorised power technology. Not only do they provide a cost effective solution, but comfort and safety (an auto-locking mechanism prevents the sail from unfurling at inopportune times), optimized dimension for a better fit on your deck, and, most importantly, the ability to convert your current manual furler into a motorised version.

Constructed from high quality aluminium & stainless, longevity and durability will be ensured. The larger diameter extrusions will accept the higher torque loads of the new motors. The torque/speed ratio is optimal, allowing you to unfurl and furl in any conditions. As with all Profurl furlers, the NDE2 is easy to install, and can be adjusted to suit your existing forestay.
