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.
The 750ml size is idea for longer outings, particularly in the warmer months. A good quality bottle.
Sturdy well-shaped brim, good stitching. All in all, very good value.
A very robust design with an easy to use valve and attachment ring. It also has a loop to tuck the valve away to stop it snagging on the shroud as it's hoisted which is a nice addition. Overall an excellent float.
Good price, delivered on time.
Great to deal with no problems .
Done quickly
It's sturdy, it's not going to fail like a block. Great for trapeze blocks
As requested and fast delivery
These are the only covers that will stand the high temperatures, humidity and pollution from the near by power station. We are based in Larnaca Cyprus with very long summers. I will highly recommend them. Plus Sailing Chandlery staff are brilliant.
Bought for my son. He was delighted with it!
I did wonder how I would change the battery on my timer and this kit s the answer !. I race land yachts and do a two minute rolling start which can be rather mad it times so i need that battery !
Fit ok and feels well padded on sole compared to my old worn out boots
Having thoroughly enjoyed a week's training at the Lyme Regis Sea School this phrase is indelibly printed on my sub conscience (the instructors will be pleased to learn) so to have this mug to remind me each morning at breakfast is a treat.
Good quality product worn well first season.
Reliable and delivered on time as stated. Workmanship is very good and the new spinnaker works a treat. Thank you
