Sail Handling<\/h2>

We stock, provide and also fit more specialised sail handling hardware such as high quality\u00a0Harken genoa lead tracks or mainsheet traveller systems\u00a0as well as the efficient and reliable\u00a0mainsail Battcars and mast tracks. These are extremely light and easy sliding even when under load and make mainsail handling a dream. Especially when combined with the\u00a0Harken single line reefing kit, which will transform your traditional slab-reefing procedure into a truly easy and safe from-the-cockpit operation. Similarly, the\u00a0Harken Lazy Jack Kits make fitting of Lazy Jacks as simple and uncomplicated as you would expect, even when doing this yourself.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

About Harken and Rolly Tasker Sails<\/h2>

Harken Yacht equipment was founded by the brothers Peter and Olaf Harken, more than 50 years ago. As very active racing sailors, they also personally met Rolly Tasker, as Peter Harken remembers:<\/p>

\u201cI\u2019m not sure where I first met Rolly except I think it was in Fremantle during the Americas Cup there in 1987. I believe we rented some space in one of his buildings for our AC service department. Anyway, it was a beginning of great friendship with he and his wife, Kerry. I vividly remember the beautiful models of the AC boats he planned for his museum.<\/p>

He invited me to visit him in Thailand at his loft and so later after the Cup I went to Phuket and was astounded by this huge sail loft including injection molding machines for all the plastic parts used in sails. The loft there was the biggest I had ever seen, no wonder Tasker Sails were world famous and not only did they make them with the Tasker label, but they contract made sails for other sailmakers.<\/p>

I also spent time at he and Kerry\u2019s amazing Thai home and I\u2019ll never forget it!! It was totally built of beautiful teak, the whole house. It was so solid, nothing could destroy it, it was a marvel and will stand forever!<\/p>

When you were with Rolly and Kerry, he did not appear or behave like a man full of energy as you would suspect from all the things he accomplished under the Tasker label. He always appeared mild mannered and calm, BUT make no mistake, there certainly was a nuclear furnace within his body.<\/p>

He was a wonderful friend that left a great legacy.\u201d<\/p>

The history of Harken as we know it today began when Peter and Olaf Harken, many years before, invented the nylon ball bearing blocks. His boats became the test platform for his designs, and as competitors saw Peter\u2019s sails releasing faster and his equipment working more smoothly than theirs, word about the \u201cblack blocks with white plastic balls\u201d began to spread. The rest, as one would say, is history. In fact, it is such a colourful and fascinating history that it is well worth to read in full detail on the Harken website: https:\/\/www.harken.com\/en\/about-us\/our-story\/<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
