PROFURL C520 Manual Headsail Furler System - 20m (66') - Boats 54-60 ft

The PROFURL C520 delivers professional-grade manual headsail furling for cruising sailboats from 54 to 60 feet (16.5-18.5m). This 20-meter furling length configuration accommodates forestays up to 16mm diameter with capacity for large cruising genoas exceeding 140 square meters. Heavy-duty sealed ball bearings feature 100 C6 carbon steel construction within fully grease-packed housings impervious to saltwater corrosion and environmental contamination. The reinforced removable drum utilizes high-impact, dimensionally stable plastic engineered to withstand severe loads typical of larger offshore vessels. Specialized heavy-load locking mechanisms featuring reinforced construction with retaining screws come standard, designed to manage substantial lateral loads during challenging conditions. The integrated wrap-stop prevents halyard fouling while doubled guide arms ensure positive furling line control throughout extended reefing and deployment operations. Round silver-anodized extrusions with internal reinforcement provide exceptional torsional rigidity and aerodynamic performance. The standard feeder system enables single-handed sail hoisting with optional Wichard components available for enhanced functionality. Double luff groove construction offers versatility for various headsail configurations. Installation options include deck-mounted with link plates, or below-deck configurations for flush installations. Accepts 10mm or 12mm furling lines with substantial drum storage capacity (30m for 10mm line, 22m for 12mm line). Compatible with clevis pins from 16-28mm diameter. Ideal for luxury cruising yachts, expedition vessels, and serious bluewater circumnavigation programs. 10-year worldwide warranty.
