When it comes to upgrading and picking a new ratchet block there are many options you can choose from.
The Harken 57mm is one of the most popular ratchet blocks on the market with most new boats from Laser and RS coming new with this block. The Carbo design is lightweight at 85g and is durable with a 5-year warranty making it a great option for your boat. This fits up to 10mm rope so is compatible with most dinghies. Harken 57mm Carbo Ratchet Block
The Allen 60mm is a relatively new block with a different design philosophy from the Harken block. The larger sheave allows up to 12mm rope so great for all sheets on most dinghy and keelboats. Having a waved sheave offers up to 40% more grip without adding additional wear to the rope. Allen 60mm Pro Ratchet with Wave Sheave
The 60mm Selden ratchet block is the most affordable of the 3 with a carbon fibre reinforced sheave over the other block's aluminium sheave this different-shaped sheave is designed to work with a range of sizes of lines. This block gives you the option to turn the ratchet off to have a free flowing block in lighter airs. Selden 60mm Manual Ratchet Single Block

Receive fantastic service couldn’t help any more if they tried. Arranged for me to collect my order at a time that suited even when it was outside of working hours. Much appreciated, thank you sailing Chandlery.
Excellent gloves, perhaps the best I have used. The fingers are long enough to provide protection from sheets/halyards and fit nicely so that ropes cannot get between the glove and finger. If the winter gloves are any guide they should also be very durable.
really happy with these! the thick material means that I will be warm whilst sailing, and the 3 finger coverage allows mobility and warmth on the water. the added grip will really help on the heavy wind reaches, can't wait to test them out this weekend. shipping was really quick, with a sweet included in my order thank you.
As always, great stock, quick delivery, perfect, thank you
The footprint of these is much more than standard trolley wheels so they roll on sand much easier.
These Falker Burgees are essential for our training fleet, giving an instant indication of apparent wind direction.
Made of stainless steel they do not corrode, and are easy to fit into the mast bracket.
It is a shame the sail part is not available as a spare as this part does not last forever, unlike the ss frame.
Nice product.
Arrived quickly and fits very well
Fast, efficient service and the lightweight trolley is perfect for my needs.
We needed to change the size and it looks like they will change the Hikers for a size up. Thank you very much
Thank you Sailing Chandlery for delivering my new sailing watch.
An excellent product and decent value.
Service was great, delivery was quick and item was good quality.
These are excellent launching trolley wheels. Much better quality than the cheaper 'knock-off' ones on eBay! It took a couple of minutes to take off my old ones and fit these
Recently bought these as a birthday present for my dad. Order arrived super speedy (even with a treat of love hearts in it). The fit and quality is great, he really loved them
Great service
