When choosing which Traveller System that you need for your sailboat, there are a few things to consider.  Let's start with what type of boat you have and the type of sailing you will be doing.

We (Barton Marine) are pleased to introduce a totally re-styled and engineered range of Genoa Cars to the global yachting market. 

The Barton Marine Boomstrut fitting with a maintenance-free design that eliminates friction and sliding parts and flexible fibreglass rods to support the boom.

Snatch Blocks work by having an opening mechanism for the side cheek that allows easy insertion of a rope or cable.

Learn more about the Barton Marine range of products including their Winches and the Wincher. Winches work through friction, gripping the line firmly with every turn applied around the winch drum. 

Tips and techniques thanks to the team at Barton Marine

The Barton Marine team is dedicated to providing sailors with a huge range of sailing hardware that stands the test of time, whilst being available at a competitive price point, leaving change for a dinner out or two during the season.

To create a spliced loop, mark the rope on either side of the loop size desired, leaving at least 15 cm of rope for the tail (the short end.)

We (Barton Marine) are bringing back the original Tufnol® Blocks range for 2023. We first manufactured them in 1948 and they built a huge following.
