Sailing a Laser you will know how important it is to have a tight traveller line.
Keeping your traveller line tight keeps the mainsheet blocks in the corners of the boat, however this can cause a challenge. The new style XD blocks are a lot harder wearing and can cause damage and wear away at the deck of your boat. The new Allen Traveller Wear Protection Pads have been specifically designed to combat this and protect your boat.
These are very easy to install and it only takes a few minutes.
Un-tie your existing traveller line. Take this as an opportunity to check the wear on your fairleads and traveller cleat at the same time. The Traveller Wear Protection Pads are labelled with port and starboard. Simply clip these onto your fairleads. Then thread your traveller line back through the fairleads.
Once in place, your traveller block will slide on top of the pads and put pressure onto the pad rather than on the deck of your boat. No Need to worry about these pads falling out and getting lost as to get them back off need to take the complete traveller line back off the boat.
This is shown below in the photos.
You can buy the Traveller Wear Protection pads on their own or you can buy them as a package that includes more great protection part for your Laser/ILCA.
Arrived quickly and fits very well
Fast, efficient service and the lightweight trolley is perfect for my needs.
We needed to change the size and it looks like they will change the Hikers for a size up. Thank you very much
Thank you Sailing Chandlery for delivering my new sailing watch.
An excellent product and decent value.
Service was great, delivery was quick and item was good quality.
These are excellent launching trolley wheels. Much better quality than the cheaper 'knock-off' ones on eBay! It took a couple of minutes to take off my old ones and fit these
Recently bought these as a birthday present for my dad. Order arrived super speedy (even with a treat of love hearts in it). The fit and quality is great, he really loved them
Great service
The wheels are exactly what I ordered. Delivery was immediate from the store and they arrived exactly when promised. 100% - job well done!
Excellent fast service from this company. Very good price for the Parka & free shipping. As a Motorhome & dog owner I bought the Parka to use when these activities frequently get cold & wet! I haven't had cause to use it yet. I've tried it on & it's just what I needed. It's a good long length (I'm 5ft 8") & does away with the need for waterproof trousers. Very handy zipped pockets & I like the fact that you can tighten up the wrist cuffs. I'm very pleased with my purchase & would certainly recommend Sailing Chandlery. Thank you.
Good quality product and easy to fit.
Not used yet but known it will be perfect. Excellent customer service from sailing chandlery as usual.
Great service and a great price. Order delivered in a timely manner.
Would definitely recommend and use again, the next time something on the boat inevitably breaks :)
I had a difficult repair, with a part of the sail that har ripped off. I used the tape to cover a large darn, taped it on both sides, and oversewed it for additional security. Easy to use, decent adhesion, probably no need to oversew.
This is exactly what I wanted. It’s super easy to charge, it’s convenient to store and carry but most importantly, it’s incredibly loud!!
