Hoisting a spinnaker can be easy, but bringing it back on board can quickly become a problem!
This is where the ATN spinnaker sock comes in handy.
Made of abrasion-resistant mesh fabric.
The handling line runs in a sleeve separate from the sail to prevent overheating and knots.
The base that smothers the spinnaker is made of rigid foam to prevent impacts with the masthead.
Available in all lengths up to 40m!
The correct length for a symmetrical spinnaker is the leech length +/- 20cm.
For an asymmetrical spinnaker, although the luff is longer than the leech, the correct length is the leech length +/- 20cm. This prevents the clew from digging too deeply into the sock.
Not suitable for a Gennaker or Code 0.
Recognized for its strength and reliability in the harshest conditions, the highly regarded ATN Spinnaker Sock is used by a large number of single-handed sailors.
