Tacker
A simple and inexpensive patented product, the tack skid was developed to control the tack of the asymmetric spinnaker without using a bowsprit.
Very easy to use, it is installed on the front sail once rolled up allowing an adjustment from top to bottom of the tack for efficiency and optimum adjustment of your sail. It can also be used for a symmetrical spinnaker.
Combined with the spinnaker sock, the tack skid greatly facilitates the use of the spinnaker.
Example price: Tack block for a 33-foot sailboat = € 214.00 incl. VAT.
