Southern Furl Boom by Southern Spars Southern Spars
Southern Spars is giving away a free carbon vang - valued at US$3,000 - with all of their SouthernFurl in-boom furlers ordered in July.

Carbon gas vangs make a great addition to the furling boom package, though if you’d prefer to keep your existing one, Southern Spars will offer you a 5% discount on the price of your boom instead.

Southern Spars has been working hard over the New Zealand summer to modify our construction process and materials resulting in significantly improved pricing for our 2016 Southern Furl booms. Our main driver has been to create a range of products with specs that are appropriate to the size and type of your yacht. The new pricing makes them more accessible to sailors around the world who are looking for a fast, safe and reliable way of reducing their mainsail area.

Customers can also make use of the strong relationship between Southern Spars and North Sails.

Recently Southern shipped a furling boom, built for a Dehler 46, to Sydney Australia from their manufacturing plant in Sri Lanka, with the brand new North main sail furled around the mandrel. As soon as the boom was fitted to the yacht, the sail was hoisted quickly and easily.

To make the most of our July special offer or for more details, head over to www.southernfurl.com or email Caitlin.Moore@southernspars.com
