| Strength
is just the beginning of why a Schaefer furler is
the best system available. |
From years
of research, we've developed a combination of
features that rival any furler, at any price.
That's because we've designed in, and improved,
all the useful features of the world's best rated
furlers, and eliminated the ideas that just didn't
make sense.
The results is a furler that's not only strong,
but easy to control, smooth and reliable. A proven
design with thousands of miles of blue-water cruising
- including the grueling Around Alone Race.
Whether you're upgrading your present boat or
outfitting a new one, you'll have confidence knowing
you've chosen the best jib furling/reefing system
available. A furler with the trusted Schaefer
name. |
| Bearing
Design: Open For Life |
| Schaefer's Torlon™
bearings cannot corrode and ride in open, easily
accessible races that don't require lubrication.
These proven, high compression strength bearings
provide low friction, and need only periodic flushing
with water. |
| Headstay
Adjustment: No Compromises |
Schaefer Systems
utilize your existing headstay and turnbuckle
for reduced cost, full turnbuckle adjustability,
and optimum performance.
Our heavy-duty base toggle/link articulates to
absorb side loads that might otherwise cause turnbuckle
fatigue. Your turnbuckle is attached to the base
toggle/link and is housed by the system, easily
accessible. |
| Drum Design:
Powerful, Open, Metal |
Our powerful,
large diameter drum provides you with the mechanical
advantage you need for high sailing loads. Standard
split drum plates allow for easy conversion to
a full length headsail.*
Attractive, stainless cage is open to give easy
access to the furling line.
Schaefer's CNC machined metal construction resists
ultraviolet rays and abuse from anchor chains
and poles mounted near the stemhead fitting. |
