DogTracks - Etchells Jib Track System - fully assembled
£1,800.00Price
Released in July 2020, this complete system allows you to achieve tighter sheeting angles on your Etchells.
Designed with simplicity in mind for the average sailor, it allows for a wide range of sheeting angles with one-string control
Product Features
- Achieve a tighter sheeting angle on your etchells - into 7 degrees off centreline
- Allows wide sheeting also - out to 12 degrees
- Jib will retain very similar twist and camber through the entire range of the track.
- Low profile design - the track follows the camber of the cuddy as it goes outboard
- Lightweight but very stiff and stable - each moulded item weighs only 300 grams
- Complies with Etchells class rules, which stipulate that recessing into the shape of the deck for the sheeting of sails is disallowed.
- 12 Month structural warranty on the moulded items
- Full assembly includes pre-fitted track, all fittings for the top of the deck and a fully dimensioned installation manual
