riven by a common passion for sailing, a team of engineers and naval architects associated with manufacturers have created KARVER Systems .
The present generation of high tech racing boats require equally high tech deck gear that accurately corresponds with the currentevolution in performance, output efficiency, weight reduction and ergonomics. Concepts first adopted in the design and construction of the Open 60'Class can now be applied to all yachts, allowing racing andcruising sailors alike to benefit from the latest cutting edge technology.
From mass production to custom parts, KARVER utilizes the most recent generation of 3D modelling and numeric simulation software, to test material stress and ergonomics, thereby creating the highest weight/stress ratio and reliability in their future products.
Following the numeric study, all products are bench tested under various loads to determine resistance to wear and failure point.Product testing at sea is the last step in the Confirmation of Excellence by KARVER follows the same "no compromise" stringent standards from theoretical study to product manufacturing. KARVER . KARVER Systems is structured to react promptly and efficiently to requests for the design and production of custom parts. KARVER has been chosen to outfit the yachts of KARVER Systems, Thank You ! the America's Cup, the Volvo Ocean Race and many Open 60' Class mono and
multihulls, with blocks, furlers, and custom hardware.
To those who both chose, and trust >
