New Articulating Multihull Sprit Kit
Allows Almost Any Multihull to Fly a Reaching Spinnaker
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - Forespar has introduced an articulating aluminum sprit kit for multihulls ranging from 25ft to 60ft. With this new Multihull Sprit Kit kit, current multihull owners can now easily retrofit their existing boats to improve downwind performance using reaching spinnakers and drifter sails.
Designed to articulate side-to-side, the user can position the sprit-end to weather to increase sail exposure for better performance. Each sprit pole is specifically sized to match the boat and can be rigged to use with continuous line furling systems or custom configured. Depending on installation, the sprit pole can also be lifted up out-of-the-way or removed.
The Multihull Sprit Kit includes all parts necessary for installation except the stays. The kit comes with sprit pole, UTS cross bar bracket, end fitting and stainless steel tangs for stays. Clear anodized to military standards, the pole is made of 6063-T6 marine alloy. Available through local Forespar dealers, the kit can be owner installed or custom installed by Nance & Underwood Rigging – 954 764-6001.
Forespar® is one of the oldest boat hardware manufacturers in the United States. Their diverse line of marine products includes carbon fiber poles, Leisure Furl™ boom furling systems, Marelon® plumbing fittings and numerous other marine related products.
