Genoa Sail Control Systems and Performance Track

Optimizing your Genoa sail performance requires a high-quality lead system that allows for precise adjustment of the sail shape and sheeting angle. At Fawcett Boat Supplies, we offer a comprehensive range of tracks and lead cars designed to handle the high loads of modern sailing. Whether you are coastal cruising or competitive racing, our selection of sailboat track and hardware keeps your headsail trim, efficient, and secure.

High Performance Genoa Track and Slider Systems

The foundation of a good headsail system is a durable and low-friction Genoa track that allows for smooth adjustments even under significant tension.

  • Track Options: We stock various profiles, including the industry standard Harken Genoa track and other T-track systems designed for maximum strength. Selecting the correct track length and hole spacing is essential for proper deck mounting and load distribution across your Genoa sail parts assembly.
  • Slider Technology: For those looking for smooth movement, we offer the yacht slide Genoa style of hardware. These sliders are engineered to move effortlessly along the track, allowing the crew to change lead positions quickly when the wind speed or heading shifts.

Professional Genoa Lead Cars and Hardware

The Genoa car is the critical connection point between your sheet and the track. Having the right sailboat cars can make the difference between a struggling trim and a perfectly balanced sail.

  • Adjustable Systems: Our inventory includes a variety of Genoa cars that sailboat enthusiasts trust for reliability. This includes pin-stop cars for simple setups and towable Genoa lead cars that allow for adjustments from the cockpit while the sail is under load.
  • Heavy Duty Performance: We provide Genoa cars from leading manufacturers, ensuring that every Genoa car sailboat installation is backed by high-grade stainless steel or anodized aluminum. Choosing heavy-duty sailboat cars prevents jamming and ensures the safety of your rigging in heavy weather.

Shop the specialized selection at Fawcett Boat Supplies to find the high-performance Genoa track and lead cars required for precision headsail tuning.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the correct Genoa track for my boat?

Selecting the right Genoa track depends on your boat's length and the total sail area of your Genoa sail. You must ensure the track profile matches the load requirements of your sheets. We often recommend a Harken Genoa track for high-load applications because of its proven durability and wide availability of compatible sailboat cars.

What is the benefit of towable Genoa lead cars?

Towable Genoa lead cars allow the crew to adjust the lead position forward or aft without having to unload the sheet or go up on deck. This is a vital feature for racing and shorthanded cruising because it allows for immediate tuning of the Genoa sail twist and power as conditions change.

How do I maintain my sailboat track and Genoa car?

To keep your Genoa car's sailboat hardware moving freely, you should regularly flush the sailboat track with fresh water to remove salt and grit. Periodically check the Genoa cars for signs of wear on the sheaves or pins. For high-performance systems, applying a dry marine lubricant can significantly reduce friction on the yacht's slide Genoa components.

Are Genoa sail parts universal across different brands?

Most Genoa sail parts are designed to fit specific track sizes (such as 1 inch or 1.25 inch T-track). While some Genoa cars are interchangeable between tracks of the same dimension, it is always best to verify compatibility between your Genoa track and the slider or car to ensure a secure fit and smooth operation.
