Re: Selden Gennaker Bowsprit

UPS was surprisingly easy to fly and we hit 6.5 knots in very light wind.

Re: Selden Gennaker Bowsprit

Gary, My UPS was shipped with the double cam cleat block installed on the continuous furling line. I realized last night the problem is that they installed the double cam cleat backwards and that is why it made no sense to me.

Re: Selden Gennaker Bowsprit

Your respon...

Selden Gennaker Bowsprit

Has anyone installed a Selden Bowsprit on your 350? I am looking to install a Selden bowsprit along with a Selden GX10 furler to make it easier to use my asymmetrical spinnaker. From the specs provided by Selden, I cannot determine if the bowsprit will fit alongside of the double anchor roller and w...
