Allow mainsails to be dropped with ease, by retaining the sail between lines running from the mast (near the hounds) to the boom. These lines can be slackened whilst sailing to avoid restricting sail shape.
Ideal for use with fully battened or conventional mainsails, these complete kits contain a white polyester rope with plastic housings over the blocks and fixing eyes attached. All fixings and comprehensive fitting instructions are also included.
A unique feature of Barton lazy jack kits is the soft plastic block covers which prevent sail chafe and enhance appearance.
This all-rope kits still feature Barton's unique block covers but are intended for smaller yachts or lightweight use.
Barton Marine also recommend that the use of a topping lift is retained and used in conjunction with the lazy jack kit.
