Have you just bought a new ILCA? There will always be parts you will want to change that work better with your sailing style.
A couple of our sponsored sailors have recently collected their new Devoti ILCA s, just in time for the RYA Youth nationals. It is always great seeing and chatting with them, and finding out how and what they change on their boat from standard to help them get to the front of the fleet.
There are two methods to do this: the old-style friction method which can be done with just a length of rope and the new-style aero Camcleat option.
The Split ring that comes as standard with the ILCA vang can be tricky to remove, due to its small size it can become quite difficult to undo the split ring when you are cold, tired and frustrated from a day on the water.
The ILCA push button pin fixes this problem with one touch! Simply press the small button at the end, this will release the pin and let you take your kicker off with ease. We have options for the Harken Vang and Allen Vang
The standard 16mm block plate blocks are brilliant for most people however due to the small sheave size they can sometimes be less effective when trying to alter your controls downwind with your sail in its furthest out position. The larger 29mm are fixed on with a bolt and there is no chance of you loosing the split ring
The Zhik Grip 2 Hiking strap combined with either the Zhik 360 or the 560 sailing boots is the ultimate hiking strap on the market for the Laser/ ILCA. The bottom side of the hiking strap has the same interlocking grip as the top of the boots giving you an unmatched fit and feel with the boat yet when you need to move your feet you can.
The main reason our sponsored sailor Jack uses the 40mm ratchet block over the 57mm standard ratchet block is that when you have your control line on and the ropes in the cockpit, he has on occasion got the control line tangled around the mainsheet rope and they would get pulled though the main block, using the smaller block just allows a 6 or 7mm main sheet though with precession.
Good quality fitted well, length good
Great service
Fast delivery - exactly as per order - many thanks
Nice smooth finish and easy to splice
This is not only comfortable but really roomy. The internal pocket is just right for my laptop and the straps mean that some items can be clipped on the outside. I’ll be using this for years to come!!
Great, exactly what I wanted they seem high quality and dont rust.
Such an easy website to use and the team are great. Fast arrival and brilliant condition. Definitely my go-to for all my sailing needs
Super value for money and delivered super quickly too. We were back on the water racing within no time
It’s really good you can get a spare for this because often you only lose this bit! It’s a much cheaper option and comes quickly.
The wheels were easily fitted to my laser launching trolley using existing washers and retaining clips.
Have been used only a couple of times so far but run smoothly and seem to do the
job fine.
Really pleased with the cover fits perfectly. I knew when it would arrive the company kept me up to date with the process
Good service, no complaints.
Very good tool to get those very tight knots undone
I've tried a number of different types and makes of neoprene boots for Sea Kayaking and these are the best (most comfortable) fit and easiest to get on/off to of all that I have tried, Really pleased with them. The sole is not as thick as it would appear from the photos but seem to be perfectly good for the usual limited shore walking.
Fine just as expected
