FURLEX ELECTRIC

We’ve all had to struggle with a furling headsail. Whether the line tangles, twists or jams, is not as smooth as it once was, or we just want to make sailing easier, electric furling is no longer the preserve of bigger boats.

Seldén’s new Furlex Electric 204E and 304E are electric furling systems for boats from 30-45ft. The units feature a DC/DC control box to convert the yacht’s 12V or 24V system to the

48V required to operate the motor, which has a two-speed function to furl or unfurl at the press of a button. www.seldenmast.com
