PRO AM
is a new generation of structural furlers for 5 to 9.5 metre boats designed for 'all or nothing' sailing (with sails fully unfurled). The sail is hoisted and hauled thanks to a second swivel called a 'halyard swivel'. PRO AM also allows you to lower the sail for wintering, maintenance or just for storage after use.

What's the difference between PRO Am and classic furler?
Structural - The stay fastens directly on the spool and the swivel, so PRO AM supports the mast.

All or nothing sailing - Because it is a structural element, PRO AM allows you to sail with the sail fully unfurled or fully furled. A classic furler with extrusions allows you to sail partially furled.

Efficient - The PRO AM halyard swivel is fitted with ball bearing

How does it work?

· Unlike a classic furler, the PRO AM has a halyard swivel (or tensioning swivel) which allows you to hoist and lower the sail.

· Attachment of the halyard on the halyard swivel

· The halyard clew of the sail is fastened to the Wichard soft shackle









· The head swivel allows the cable to rotate and thus furl the sail













· The tack of the sail is fastened to the Wichard shackle

· The stay (5,6 or 7mm single strand) is fastened to the drum and the swivel at the head

· The stainless steel toggles are fitted to the boats deck and mast
