Barton Marine launches the HB1, a new headsail furler for small sailing boats

Boating and sailing - Barton Marine unveils its new HB1 continuous line furler, designed to improve the performance of dinghies and small sailboats. It will be available internationally in April 2025.

This innovative furling system is distinguished by the introduction of hybrid bearing technology, combining solid and Torlon ball bearings, for perfect balance and smooth rotation, even under heavy loads. Its 316 stainless steel axle and 6061 anodised aluminium frame make it robust and durable.

Weighing just 175g and with a safe working load of 600kg, it allows for high-performance and reliable sailing. Designed for 4mm to 6mm ropes, it stands out for its tool-free installation and its continuous line that guarantees excellent grip and smooth handling.

The Barton Marine HB1 headsail furler is a real technical advance in deck equipment, meeting the requirements of the most demanding sailors.
