SAIL HARDWARE
A connection that makes a difference.
Seldén’s collaboration with sailmakers all over the world goes way back and the synergy provides well functional sail handling in all respects. Our Sailmaker Hardware is the connection between the rig and the sails and a real game changer for your sailing experience.
SAIL CARS FOR FULL-BATTEN SOLUTIONS
IWS – Inner Wheel Slider For lateral oriented Seldén sections from 2018 – C137 C153 C180 C192 C208 C225 C242 C261 C280 MDS – Multi-Directional Support For longitudinal oriented Seldén sections from 2002 – C156 C175 C193 C211 C227 C245 C264 C285 C304 RCB – Round Circulating Ballbearings For mast sections with 5-6 mm luff grooves such as Seldén E- and D-sections from the 70’s 80’s and 90’s. OWS – Outer Wheel Slider For Seldén E- and D-sections from the 70’s 80’s and 90’s and various sections from Sparcraft, Z-Spar, Briand
Low friction hoisting and dousing of the sail will please your crew every day of the week. We provide four types of full-batten systems that fit a wealth of different mast sections, new and old, Seldén or other brands.
THE IWS FULL-BATTEN CONCEPT
IWS – INNER WHEEL SLIDER (C137 C153 C180 C192 C208 C225 C242 C261 C280)
The four wheel IWS car simplifies hoisting, reefing and dousing and is used for Seldén’s newest C-sections. The side load created by the full-batten is taken up by the wheels as the slider tilts to the side and a buffer bearing centers the slider in the groove. The mast groove and the car makes for a perfect match handling loads from all direction without any extra hardware fitted to the mast. The full-batten cars come with a M10 stud and the intermediate cars with a bushing for webbing.
THE MDS FULL-BATTEN CONCEPT FOR C-SECTIONS
Full support in all directions As the name implies, Seldén’s MDS (Multi-Directional Support) cars are supported in all directions, making sail handling simpler. A full batten always creates a side load on the cars, particularly when you release the halyard for taking a reef. Each car has side-load absorbing wheels that run against the guiding flanges in the luff groove. The interaction between the mast section and the MDS car deals with longitudinal loads, as well as side loads. This is the essence of the MDS concept. Since the cars need no external track, there is also less weight aloft.
The MDS cars are easy to keep clean and are easy to install or remove from the luff groove.
The MDS system is a suitable complement to the Seldén Single Line Reef boom. With such a combination on board, you have a simple and easily manoeuvred system for handling the mainsail in all weathers.
- IWS – Inner Wheel Slider
- MDS full-batten concept
- Sailmakers guide
OWS is an excellent upgrade from traditional sail slides to reduce friction when hoisting and dousing the main sail. It fits earlier models of Seldén sections (E-sections and D-sections) and most other mast makes. The four wheels roll on the aft side of the mast section while the slug slides inside the luff groove. The depth and the shape of the slug is designed for dedicated mast sections and there are five different designs to chose between. Our guidelines show you which to select.

Round Circulating Ball Bearings
The RCB system offers a radical solution to the problems with jamming sliders in an old mast. Basically, you fit a track on your mast and cars with Torlon ball bearings eliminate all that unnecessary friction you are so fed up with. The RCB track, which comes complete with screws and special nuts, is easy to fit on a Seldén E- or D-section. Just push the track into the original mast groove and tighten up. The attachment system is tailored to Seldén masts, but it will also fit those with a similar luff gap (approx. 6 mm or 1/4″). Other masts can be fitted with the track by screwing it directly in place.

BATTEN RECEPTACLES
Seldén’s composite receptacles are available for boats up to approximately 45’ and allow for round and flat battens. They all connect to cars with M10 studs such as MDS, OWS, IWS and RCB.
To open the cover, just unscrew the locking screw a few turns and push the cover back. If you would drop it – it is secured to the body with a safety cord. Through the slot in the cover you will see the tensioning device and indicators on the cover will enable you to record the perfect batten tension. A unique feature of the A17, FA-22 and FA-30 is that the tension of the batten can be adjusted both from the front end of the fitting as well as from the rear.

“ By far the best team I've ever worked with. They truly understood what was required to get our boat rigged for our cruising and offshore and completely nailed it, adding an extra halyard and a reef point for a jib sail to be used as a backup on the main! I would highly recommend them as a company, you won't find any better! Paul R
“ It was really fun getting to know the team during the project. They were all helpful in answering our rigging questions and made us feel at ease. The work ended up being better than we could've envisioned! Jeff G
“ I'm wondering why I never used these guys sooner when we were in Florida! They have commendable talent and knowledge and did a great job getting our sailboat ready for cruising. An amazing experience! Mark L, Annapolis

liveaboard marina in St. Petersburg
- Add to quote
Does anyone have any comments or recommendations on marinas in the St, Petersburg, Fla area. Will be there for three months starting in mid-Dec. Thanks
P, you have three basic choices. You can berth somewhere along the FL West Coast ICW (Clearwater has the largest gaggle of boats and docks), where access to the Gulf is quick and the ''feel'' of the place is one long stretch of condos and strip malls. Or you can look for a berth on the east side of Tampa Bay - bucolic, shallow and distant from most of life except some friendly fellow boaters. The third option is to berth in downtown St. Pete, where free downtown bus service ties in even the more distant marina, concerts in the parks are a norm, a variety of events are held each month, and multiple museums are within walking distance. Assuming you''ll be interested in the 3rd option, you can seek a berth at the Harborage (next to the Salvidor Dali Museum but 1-2+ miles from the downtown area I described), which is somewhat upscale with floating docks and a pool, you can request a visitor''s berth at the large, multi-basin Municipal Marina (literally at the front door of all the action; www.stpete.org), or you can request a berth at the Vinoy Hotel''s docks (very, very upscale; please deliver my drink to the sauna...). St. Pete''s Muni Marina is basic, not many amenities beyond the showers, TV room and such, but has good security and an outstanding location. They have a long waiting list but do accommodate visitors at the North Basin...and for your length of stay, you probably can seek a South Basin berth once you arrive, if that''s important to you. (Call 800 782-8350 to reach them). St. Pete is one of those best-kept secrets as a cruising destination. Jack
I agree with Jack. St. Pete. is a great place to hole up for a while. There are also a few more marinas that are not located near downtown. Tierra Verde, Gulfport, Maderia Beach Municp. just to name a few. Tierra Verde, close to main beach''s semi$$ Gulfport, nice quiet and semi inexpensive. Maderia Beach, very close to gulf beach, where most of the fishing charter boats are. And also Maximo(part of the Harborage)On the south side of town. All have good protection and are close to various shops. Dave R. St. Pete.
I''m not sure you could get in to the Municipal marina for that long without going on the waiting list (well over a year to get a slip). The Harborage has lots of space since they doubled their rates three years ago and half the boats have left. The Harborage is a healthy walk to downtown St Pete.
St. Pete''s municipal marina has room for transients at all times of the year (assuming arrival early enough on a given day) and longer term transients are sometimes berthed at the South Basin, in addition to the visitors'' docks in the North Basin. The Harborage is on the south side of the USF campus and some distance from downtwon St. Pete (1-2 miles, depending one where one is heading) but there is free bus service daily to/from that location to all of the downtown locations.

In St. Pete, my recommendation is the Harborage, hands down. My son lived on my boat in that marina for the better part of a year and thought it was great. Facilities are excellent, the people who run the place are as friendly as can be. Also, access to downtown is easy. So far as I know, there was no waiting list while we were there. My boat would still be there if St. Pete were not so far from my home and work. Hope this helps. Dave... S/V Tacit Knowledge, Lake Lanier
Just to clarify, the Harborage is limited to a few liveaboard slips if the boat is on annual contract. There is no restriction on boat crews living aboard should the boat be registered at the daily/weekly ''visitor'' rate, which is also true of the other marinas. Facilities are indeed at least one notch above the Municipal Marina as the Harborage offers floating docks (tho'' the tidal range is only 2-3''). But they charge accordingly. There are also some amenities (pool, cabana/deli). However, the Harborage is not close to downtown unless the free bus is used and the downtown area offers a range of ''amenities'', even including a huge Olympic pool, numerous museums and numerous parks. By contrast, the Harborage and next door neighbor, the Dali Museum, are somewhat remote from the downtown scene. In general, there are usually no ''visitor berthing'' waiting lists at any of the 3 marinas in the downtown area. But the costs will cover quite a spread: Vinoy, Harborage, Muncipal in descending order. Jack
Thanks to everyone for the advice. We found a slip at The Harborage for a reasonable rate. As mentioned, the Municipal Marina had a long waiting list plus they just increased their prices Jan. 1st. We''ll have a car while we are there so getting around won''t be a problem. Thanks again. Pierre
