allspars long standing relationship with the French company Karver has resulted in a new system for cruising chutes and asymmetric spinnakers.

Up until now the Karver furlers only work on sails with a straight luff (i.e. code zero & gennaker) this is fine if you are purchasing a new sail as well as the furler, however if you already have a cruising chute or an asymmetric spinnaker for your yacht then there is now an alternative to the snuffer.

Using the Karver top down furler in conjunction with an antitorsion stay you can now furl your cruising chutes in the same way you furl your headsail.
