The new sail entry gate is designed for use with our
new MDS cars or with
conventional sail slides.
When using it with MDS
cars, you simply remove
the sail entry gate when
installing or removing the
cars. When using it with
conventional slides, use the
spring-loaded mid section
of the sail entry gate. Sail entry >

Sail entry gate easily removed to fit or remove Seldén MDS cars. Sail entry gate designed for use with Seldén MDS cars or conventional sail slides. For detailed information about our conventional sail slides, please see Sailmakers
Guide, www.seldenmast.com. For a fully-battened main-sail with the batten cars
running in the standard
sail track, this track gate
insert should be used. You can improve an old mast by using a cassette
tube for the luff groove.
The cassette is easily fitted
into the widened luff groove of the mast.
The sail slides are fed in through the spring-loaded gate. When reefing, the sail slides pass through the closed track gate down to the boom, holding the sail in place and facil-itating faster and safer reefing. When the spring-loaded section of the track gate is removed, the track gate can
just as easily be used with a luff rope.
Bolt rope extrusion and sail entry Sails with bolt rope can be used in our C-sections. A new sail feeder is assembled approximately 700 mm above the
boom bracket. The PVC bolt rope extrusion is fed into the
standard luff groove. >
