Sail Pre-Feeder and Halyard Restrainers

Compatible with all systems, our pre-feeder is helpful if you intend to change sails often. Aligns your luff tape before it enters the stainless steel feeder.
Avoid halyard wrap with the addition of a Schaefer halyard restrainer. The likelihood of the halyard becoming entangled or “wrapped” around the furler extrusion is a function of the angle of the lead out of the masthead sheave in relation to the upper swivel unit.
