Top Down Furling
Top Down Furling Systems for Gennakers, Code Sails & Offshore Sailing Applications
Technical Marine Supplies supplies a specialist range of top down furling systems designed for efficient sail handling on cruising yachts, racing yachts, superyachts and offshore sailing vessels. Top down furlers provide a safe, effective and increasingly popular solution for furling asymmetric sails, gennakers, code sails and light-weather downwind sails, allowing crews to deploy and recover sails quickly while maintaining control in challenging conditions.
Unlike conventional furling systems, top down furling technology enables the sail to begin furling from the head before progressively wrapping the remainder of the sail around the torsion cable. This makes it particularly effective for larger free-flying sails that cannot be reefed using traditional headsail furlers. As a result, top down furlers have become an essential sail-handling solution for offshore cruising, performance sailing and short-handed yacht operations.
Technical Marine Supplies offers industry-leading solutions including Seldén GX furlers, Seldén CXr furlers and Karver V3 furling systems, alongside associated accessories and tack adapters. These systems are trusted throughout the marine industry for their reliability, ease of operation and ability to enhance both safety and sail-handling efficiency across a wide range of vessel types.
As a specialist B2B marine distributor, Technical Marine Supplies works closely with sailmakers, riggers, boat builders, yacht service companies, race teams and OEM manufacturers. Whether specifying furling systems for a production yacht, a custom superyacht project or a high-performance racing programme, our team can provide expert guidance and technical support.
