Vaurien Tuning Information

Update

Seldén Vaurien spars have been developed in conjunction with leading sailors, sailmakers, and boatbuilders from around the world.

Two mast sections are available, 2420 for lighter weight crews, and Lambda for medium / heavyweight crews.

Rigging Pack is supplied complete with all halyards, shrouds, and forestay.

The Seldén 2520 boom has the unique strength for weight characteristics necessary to achieve absolute mainsheet and kicker control: - simply the stiffest available within class rules- and our boom slides allow direct attachment of kicker and mainsheet blocks for efficient centre lining.

Standard boom includes inboard end, outboard end with sheave, plus three boom slides.

Spinnaker pole is 38mm tapered lightweight tube, complete with piston ends and pole lift eye.

Why Seldén?

Choose a Seldén mast and you will find many performance enhancing features unique to our products, for example:

  • The Seldén tapering system ensures that our tapers are minimum size and weight. This gives low windage, centre of gravity and topmast weight. This maximises your speed by enabling the topmast to react quickly to gusts and waves giving better acceleration, a smoother ride upwind and, ultimately, more races won!
  • Automated welding keeps excess heat out of the taper for guaranteed consistency and performance. The weld produced is so perfect that there is no need to mechanically grind the weld (which can induce inconsistencies). This means that once we have finalised a winning design, you can be sure that your spar will perform identically to the champions.
  • All masts are heat treated in our purpose-designed oven. This artificial hardening ensures that you get maximum performance from the high performance aluminium alloy.
  • Our spars pass through a purpose-developed bead-peening machine. This gives the mast a perfect satin finish that dramatically improves fatigue properties, giving you a mast that will perform reliably for many years.
  • Top quality fittings such as our fully adjustable spreader bracket and highly durable cast gooseneck ensure speed and reliability on the racecourse.
