Innovative elastic sail tie-up with 6 integrated lashings for quick and secure attachment of the mainsail to the boom!
The TAUSENDFÜSSLER is an elastic sail tie with 6 integrated lashings made of high-quality elastic cord for quick and effective mainsail attachment. With its high tension and robust 8 mm rope, it offers reliable fastening when reefing or stowing the sail. Available in two lengths (2000 mm and 3000 mm), it adapts perfectly to different boom sizes and enables professional sail attachment without individual lashings.
The "Millipede" is used on board for quickly securing the reefed or stowed mainsail to the boom. The six integrated sail ties are evenly distributed along its length, ensuring secure fixation of the folded sail. Thanks to its elastic cord, the "Millipede" adapts to various sail diameters and offers high tension. The robust 8 mm rope guarantees durability and reliable fastening, even under heavy use. This complete solution eliminates the need to handle individual sail ties and significantly speeds up the reefing process.
When reefing the sail, place the jib cord over the folded sail on the boom. The six jib straps are then wrapped around the boom and sail, one after the other, and secured. Start in the middle and work your way to the ends to ensure even tension. The elastic cord should be taut but not overstretched. Choose the length according to your boom circumference: 2000 mm for smaller booms, 3000 mm for larger booms. Store away from UV radiation for extended periods.

Regularly inspect the sail tie-up for damage, tears, or wear to the elastic cord and the lashings. UV radiation and saltwater can degrade the material over time. Replace damaged sail tie-ups immediately to ensure secure attachment. Avoid overstretching the elastic cord. Choose the correct length for your boom circumference to achieve optimal tension. For long-term storage, keep dry and away from direct sunlight.
