Barton Marine is proud to launch the popular range of New Zealand designed
and manufactured Windicators to the US boating market at the Annapolis
Sailboat Show 2026. The full range of five products will be on display and
available to experience throughout the show on Stand SCP38 from October
15th-18th 2026.
The Windicator range has been synonymous with the Kiwi Yachting scene for
over 30 years and considered the best wind direction indicator by leading
sailors and riggers. It is 100% accurate in two knots of wind, made of
lightweight, but highly robust materials and very easy to fit on a wide variety of
vessels from Optimist dinghies to offshore racing yachts.
The Barton Marine technical team can be found outside on stand SCP38 next to
supply partner Defender Industries. They will be on hand to assist sailors from
around the world with deck equipment solutions and to share new and
innovative products Barton have recently launched to improve the sailing
experience.
Recent launches include the HBT Continuous Line Furler for dinghies and
dayboats, sleek single hand operated GT and HD Genoa Cars, and the
transformational Outboard Motor Sling. These will be showcased alongside a
wide selection of pulley blocks, boomstruts, high load eyes and the award
winning Winchers that easily make your standard winches self-tailing.
The full complement of deck equipment gear in the Barton catalogue numbers
over 2000 strong, making it a treasure trove for sailors. Further to their own
stand Barton products will be displayed and available to purchase at the show
stands of Defender, Fawcett Marine and Bacon Sails.
Visitors should ensure to pop by stand SCP38 for a warm welcome and lots of
"sailing chat".
