Profurl NEX 1.5V2 Furlassist – Spare / Upgrade

The Profurl NEX 1.5V2 Furlassist Ratchet is a retrofit upgrade designed to enhance the furling control of Profurl NEX V2 flying sail furlers. Integrated directly into the drum assembly, the Furlassist system introduces a progressive ratchet function that provides additional resistance during furling, helping to manage loads more smoothly and reduce the effort required when rolling sails away under tension.

This upgrade is particularly beneficial when furling large or heavily loaded sails, such as Code sails or cruising gennakers, where line control and drum stability become critical. By assisting the furling line rather than locking it, the Furlassist ratchet maintains smooth, continuous rotation while limiting unwanted backspin, improving overall handling and safety on deck.

Designed specifically for the NEX 1.5 V2 furler, the Furlassist ratchet can be fitted as a replacement part or as an upgrade to existing V2 drum assemblies, extending the versatility and performance of the furler without the need for a complete system replacement.
