ATN SnapRatchet

A ratcheting snap block that makes dousing the ATN Spinnaker Sleeve controlled and easy, even shorthanded.

About the SnapRatchet

The SnapRatchet exists for the moment the breeze is up and the spinnaker needs to come down. Clipped between the Spinnaker Sleeve control lines and the deck, its ratchet holds what you have gained, one hand-over-hand pull at a time.

The ATN SnapRatchet is a deck block that makes dousing the ATN Spinnaker Sleeve easier and safer.

  • Control lines never escape your hands
  • Gives you mechanical advantage while lowering the sleeve
  • Lets you douse from a sitting position instead of standing at the bow
  • Pairs naturally with the ATN Spinnaker Sleeve, sized by the boat, not the sail

It is the natural companion to the ATN Spinnaker Sleeve, sized by the boat, not the sail.
