Halyard Clip by SOAK

SOAK Halyard Clip
Designed for Boats up to 40'

Designed to prevent accidental spinnaker launches when sailing upwind and to keep the halyard from fouling during tacks. Plus, it automatically release when you're hoisting, so it's one less than to worry about going around the top mark. Made of high quality Nylon with UV inhibitor for durability. Nylon attachment line included.

Works best with lines from 5/32 (4mm) to 3/8 (9mm). We have found that it works best with stripped line because covered line is too rigid. For covered line we only recommend it up to 5/16".

The Port version (218) is open to port, or left if you're standing behind the cleat, and the Starboard version (217) is open to starboard, or right if you're standing behind the cleat.
