MKIV Ocean Unit 1 Foil - 2.13 m

Harken MKIV Ocean Unit 1 Foil - 2.13 m

The Unit 1 MKIV Ocean foil extrusion is a replacement or extra component for Harken's MKIV Ocean furling system, designed specifically for cruising sailors who demand reliable sail control without the complexity of racing systems. This 7-foot (2.13 m) luff foil works seamlessly with the MKIV Ocean Unit 1 jib reefing and furling system to provide smooth, effortless sail handling from the safety of the cockpit.

Constructed from marine-grade hardcoat-anodized aluminum, the foil is UV-stabilized to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight and harsh marine environments, ensuring years of reliable performance. The extrusion incorporates multiple rows of Torlon® ball bearings that run in a single groove along the foil, minimizing friction throughout the furling and reefing process and making it significantly less physically demanding to operate the system, even in challenging wind conditions.

The bearing design requires no lubrication, eliminating routine maintenance tasks and reducing the risk of salt corrosion. The foil integrates easily with standard connectors and components from the MKIV Ocean family, allowing for flexible system configuration and simple installation on boats ranging from 28 to 36 feet. Whether you're seeking to add additional foil sections to extend your luff length or replacing a damaged component, this foil maintains the same quality and performance standards as the complete MKIV Ocean system.
