Babystay is essential when a boat is fitted with a roller furling system. The Wichard pelican adjusters are simple, strong and safe. They are designed to allow quick and easy attachment of the babystay. The small size is available with a wheel or a folding handle which operates like a ratchet. This version has a long stud which allows the stay, when detached from the unit to fit against the mast. Larger sizes have an integrated ratchet system. |
