Catalogue 2024 - 2

We make hardware for sailors of all kinds. We design and we prototype. We test and retest. Someone makes a good suggestion, and we revise. All the while we’re determining how to manufacture in quantity at the right price. And then we build and start shipping. There’s not a lot of time for celebrating baked into our model. We get back into our inboxes pretty quickly. But then it happens. We start to see what sailors accomplish with what we make. They pull off a lee bow maneuver at 40 knots--and it becomes blasé. They foil across an ocean. They ice-in over whole winters up a fjord--and work...

Zircon Blocks The core of the new Zircon blocks are industrial ceramic ball bearings mounted inside caged races. The cages keep these bearings apart so they don’t bunch up, touch, and stop each other. The result is a VERY free-running block with less energy lost to friction. Ceramic is a more familiar name for the metal element Zirconium. Zircon bearings are about 7.5X stronger in compression than stainless bearings. They just don’t absorb as much energy before starting to roll. You feel it when you need to ease a sail in very light air. These blocks respond! You feel even the slightest...

Melges 15 © Melges Performance Sailboats / Morgan Kinney A first! The new carbo twing block features a spring-loaded top-opening mechanism so you can pop it on or off the sheet very quickly whenever the breeze dictates. And practice makes doing it one-handed a snap. Carbo side plates and sheave give it the toughness to survive impact as you pull it down tight to the deck.

The spring on the HTE (high-threshold engage) version of the 57 mm Carbo Ratchamatic blocks was made stiffer to delay the point where the ratchet engages, allowing the block to run freely more of the time. The ratchet function engages at higher loads to allow the old kite sheet to run freely for crisper gybes.
