Harken Cruising Furling System
ESP
The Harken ESP Furler is designed for the
cruiser looking for an easy-to assemble
furler with an elegant design. Install a
Harken® ESP Furler and trim safely from
the cockpit when it blows; unfurl instead
of motoring when it’s light, for a great day
of sailing.
To make assembly easier, Harken offers
top foils in five precut lengths—no hacksaw
required. An adjustable bottom foil
fine-tunes the unit. Foils slip over most
existing headstays without cutting the
headstay, reducing set-up time even more.
EASY ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
Top foil offered in 5 sizes to fit headstay length requirements of
the boat. Bottom foil
adjusts to fine-tune your final length—no hacksaw required.
Bottom foil adjusts to
fine-tune length. Shackle at the tack and head attach the sail to
the furler, with sail
shape controlled by halyard tension. Marine eye and headstay wire
pass through
the foil so there is no need to cut the wire during installation.
STANDS UP TO ELEMENTS:
Spool is made from Hard Lube-anodized aluminum. Cover, flange, and
guard are
molded from glass reinforced polymers for high strength. Foils are
clearcoat-anodized
for durability. The stainless steel sail feeder is strong and durable.
LONG OR SHORT LEG KITS TO ADJUST DRUM HEIGHT:
Choose the long leg extension kit when using a turnbuckle with swage,
Norseman
or Sta-Lok® terminals. Long legs raise the drum to clear the
anchor, reduce sail chafe,
and increase visibility. Removable clamp screws allow legs to pivot
out of the way
for easy access to the turnbuckle.
Choose the short leg extension kit when the furler attaches directly
to a marine eye
at the bottom of the stay. Short legs allow the sail to be closer
to the deck.
OPTIONS:
An optional halyard deflector, installed above the foil, prevents
the jib halyard and
other halyards (such as a spinnaker or additional jib halyards) from
wrapping around
the foil when furling.
Strong, lightweight stanchion-mounted blocks are offered to lead
line aft for safe
furling from the cockpit.
