Dropping the spinnaker is the most complicated and potentially dangerous maneuver facing a yachtsman. The ATN Spinnaker Sleeve ensures a safe and orderly retrieval. It has removed much of the fear from spinnaker handling. Recreational sailors can now enjoy spinnaker sailing as it allows one person to hoist a kite on his or her own terms and decide exactly when to let it fly. You'll never have to "pack" your spinnaker again. With the ATN Spinnaker Sleevee, you can fly the spinnaker, gennaker, MPS, mizzen staysail (any free Luff sail) with ease and confidence. In the last "Vendee Global Challenge", 80% of the fleet carried the "ATN" spinnaker sleeve.
There are three different sizes of ATN Spinnaker Sleeve, which correspond to the boat length and range of luff lengths of the spinnaker (or other sail). Order the SS 55 model for boats up to 45' LOA and sleeve lengths up to 55'. Order model SS 100 for boats up to 90' and sleeve lengths from 56' to 100'. For boats over 90' LOA and sleeve lengths from 100' to 130', choose model SS 130.
