Sailing a Laser you will know how important it is to have a tight traveller line.
Keeping your traveller line tight keeps the mainsheet blocks in the corners of the boat, however this can cause a challenge. The new style XD blocks are a lot harder wearing and can cause damage and wear away at the deck of your boat. The new Allen Traveller Wear Protection Pads have been specifically designed to combat this and protect your boat.
These are very easy to install and it only takes a few minutes.
Un-tie your existing traveller line. Take this as an opportunity to check the wear on your fairleads and traveller cleat at the same time. The Traveller Wear Protection Pads are labelled with port and starboard. Simply clip these onto your fairleads. Then thread your traveller line back through the fairleads.
Once in place, your traveller block will slide on top of the pads and put pressure onto the pad rather than on the deck of your boat. No Need to worry about these pads falling out and getting lost as to get them back off need to take the complete traveller line back off the boat.
This is shown below in the photos.
You can buy the Traveller Wear Protection pads on their own or you can buy them as a package that includes more great protection part for your Laser/ILCA.
Slides easily through the blocks whilst providing firm grip
Item has brilliant bounce back ability, thanks
Simple to fit and makes launching and recovery simple. Well worth the investment
Quality material and design enables my lug sail to be stowed securely on it's spars
Great wide and grippy tyres for a shingle/sharp launching area and compound for an RS400.
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
