Keep your side decks uncluttered by leading all your furling and any other similar control lines aft from the foredeck to the cockpit/aft quarter via blocks or fairleads attached to the guardrail stanchions.
Jimmy Green Marine offer a wide selection from recognised leading block manufacturers: Barton, Harken, Holt, Profurl, Selden and Spinlock.
Stanchion Blocks General Features:
- Single for simple furling drum lines
- Double for endless free furling drum lines
- Clamping arrangement to fit 25mm or 1" diameter stanchions - tightened to stay fast with machine screws/bolts (Profurl exception)
- Good Articulation
Stanchion Fairleads perform the same function:
- Holt, Profurl or Spinlock option
- Simpler fitting than a block
- Less expensive
- No moving parts
- No articulation
- Reasonably free running due to a smooth stainless steel insert
Notable Individual Adjustability Features:
- Removable Axle Pin (Holt) - lines or blocks can be added to the system without re-reeving the whole line
- Double Line Fairleads (Selden, Harken Reflex and Profurl) - convenient for endless lines and additional fairleads can also be added in to the layout
- Outboard Lead (Harken)- additional option for leading lines around the outside of the stanchions
