We were proud to partner with Balance Catamarans and Nexus Yachts/Balance Catamarans on the Balance 580 ‘Swann’, supplying and manufacturing our new, larger carbon furling boom — designed for performance, reliability, and effortless sail handling on true bluewater passages.

This footage from her final sea trials highlights the boom in action, integrated into a complete rig package by Sparcraft Masts, including the mast, standing and running rigging, crossbeam, longeron with integrated anchor launch system, as well as Profurl electric genoa and staysail furlers and a Facnor electric screecher furler.
