Patented flexing spring provides fast response and a constant force for vang efficiency.

The boomstrut's lightweight, low-profile design features two flexible coated fibreglass rods which provide the force to support the boom. Pulling the boom downwith a conventional kicker causes the Boomstrut to flex upwards; releasing straightens the rods, thereby lifting and supporting the boom.

Six sizes to suit yachts up to 12m/40' LOA.

The Barton Boomstrut has been carefully designed and constructed to eliminate sharp edges, minimise parts and provide trouble-free installation and use.

All parts are from high-grade stainless steel and Spectro grey anodised aluminium.
