Wichard Gyb'Easy boom brake
Gybe safely with Wichard Gyb'Easy boom brake
Why a boom brake? Gybing remains one of the most challenging operations on a sailing boat even for experienced sailors and can possibly generate injuries and material damage. Gyb'Easy is an efficient and safe solution to reduce such risks.
Thanks to the friction of the specific line supplied passing over the boom brake, the boom is allowed to gybe smoothly and without jerks.
Adjustment is made by varying the tension of the line and with 3 different options for leading the line (1 bar, 2 bars, or all 3) to adapt according to the mainsail and wind conditions.
Installation takes a few minutes to install it on an existing eye strap of the boom. Two different configurations can be used to fit with different deck configurations.
Maximum main sail area 40 m2
Includes line Gyb'Flex (part#: 7148): Length: 16 m, Diameter: 11 mm
