Karver Manufacturer Advisory:

• The quality of the anti-torsion line is critical to performance, even on smaller sails
• The KF0.9 V3 does not have the continuous line wheel locking system or swivel protection
• A Dyneema Soft Shackle is an excellent alternative to a knot on the lashing eye of the swivel
• A Dyneema Continuous Loop can be added if the chain plate will not fit directly to the snap shackle
• The back anodised KF0.9 (V2) is compatible with the grey KF1 thimbles and grey KTS1
• N.B. The KF0.9 does not work with the KTS1.5 spinnaker adaptor
