Roller furling mainsail - Comfort and Control in One Sailing Solution
A roller furling mainsail is the perfect solution for sailors who value comfort, simplicity and safety. The clever furling system allows you to furl the mainsail infinitely without leaving the cockpit. This makes it ideal for changing wind conditions and ensures a relaxed sailing experience.



The Benefits of a Rollerreef Mainsail
- Ultimate ease of use
The sail is easily rolled into the mast or boom and can be operated with minimal handling. - Stepless reefing for maximum control
You can fine-tune the sail area to the wind without abruptly reefing or changing the sail. - Safety and convenience
No more binding handles or deck work required. Everything is done safely from the cockpit. - Longer sail life
Because the sail is stored in the mast, it is protected from wind and weather. - Always neatly tidy
A rolled-up sail provides a sleek appearance without loose tarpaulins on the deck
