Bowsprit for Code-sailing

Increase the performance on your sailing yacht

Code-sailing is something that has come to stay in the sport of sailing. Boats with smaller forsail/genoa will definitely need some form of Code to speed up your boat when the wind is light.

The tack of a gennaker or a Code-0 sail is always attached to the boat forward of the forestay. While a simple bowsprit is good enough for a gennaker, a sturdy tripod-type bowsprit is essential for serious Code-0 sailing. The triaxial forces when sailing with winds forward of abeam are simply too strong for a typical pipe-like bowsprit. Båtsystem’s Race and Performance bowsprits are explicitly designed for these huge forces and made for Code-0 sailing. For the simpler Classic series we have conversion kits available as well.

What makes the series different? One can simply put it this way;

Race is for your who want a neat solution with minimum weight and still maximum strength in your bowsprit.

Performance is for you who want full Code functionality but also have the opportunity to have anchors and ladder in casing on bowsprit.
