Seldén’s hydraulic furling system for mainsail and foresail are: • Furlex Hydraulic for headsails • Hydraulic furling mast • Hydraulic outhaul The picture to the right shows the principle of a hydraulic system with hydraulic pump, valve units and drive units, all connected by hydraulic hosing. The system is operated from the cockpit by control switches connected to the system through a control box.

The worm gear, which is self-braking, locks the sail in the required position. In an emergency, the mainsail can also be manually furled and unfurled with an ordinary winch handle. Hydraulic clew outhaul – the ultimate control The push-button controls in the cockpit give you complete command of your mainsail. You can also trim the outhaul when sailing close hauled – a task which would ordinarily require the full strength of a crew member using a manual winch. Furthermore,
