Description
The Great Hawk is a scaled up version of the original Hawk. It is designed for cruising and racing yachts up to 20m.
The vane and arms are made of super tough, glass-filled Nylon 12, for improved rigidity, durability, and UV resistance over similar looking polycarbonate versions on the market. They are all but indestructible.
The precision balanced vane arm and Hawk's "V" jewel bearing surface gives instant response to shifts and gusts with minimal inertia.
The reference arms can be preset at 55, 60 or 65 degrees or any angle you prefer, and can be used for either upwind or downwind angles.
The 5mm aluminium support rod is strong enough to take normal wear and tear, but can be bent straight should it be knocked while the mast is being stepped or unstepped.
