The eXtreme High Load block range continues to grow with the addition of the new 20mm XHL double blocks, available with or without a becket.
 

The new A2022XHL & A2023XHL follow the success of the 30mm XHL ILCA Top Block. A block which was explicitly designed for the ILCA vang system. The two new 20mm doubles are no different and have been developed alongside the world's best ILCA sailors and riggers. However, they are more than suitable for any application which requires working loads up to 600Kg.

Introducing the ILCA Wear Protectors, a product designed to stop the damage which can be caused by the mainsheet traveller blocks, ensuring your boat stays protected.

The ILCA wear protector is designed to fit around the existing traveller fairlead  A.282A. An item which is the same on every ILCA dinghy, due to the one-design nature of the class.

The ILCA wear protectors are moulded from nylon and shaped to give a smooth transition from deck level to ensure the mainsheet block rides over the pad easily. Comes as a handed pair, one for starboard and one for port.

Through Deck Bushes - All you need to know
How do you know which deck bush is the right one for the job? It's fairly common on modern boats to see rope passing through a surface, such as the deck, thwart or any other part of the hull. This rigging style ensures the rope takes the shortest path, meaning fewer turning points, less friction and less weight. Posted on 30 Mar
