SailKote Cruising Application Guide



A [return to top]	Batten Pockets Apply Sailkote to full length battens to make them slide in and out easier and minimize friction during tacks and jibes while helping the sail fill quicker and easier.

B [return to top]	Mainsail Track Sailkote makes raising and lowering the main much easier in all conditions. Sailkote will not attract dirt and contaminants that foul the track. Sailkote makes reefing under load almost effortless.

C [return to top]	Standing Rigging Sailkote all standing rigging to minimize sail chafe and friction making tacks and jibes much easier and more efficient.

D [return to top]	Blocks Sailkote keeps blocks corrosion free and lubricated for exceptionally easy and reliable operation.

E [return to top]	Hatches Spray Sailkote on hatches and companion way tracks for ease of movement and corrosion control.

F [return to top]	Travelers & Cars Sailkote keeps tracks and cars moving smoothly and corrosion free. Sailkote will not attract dirt & grime or gum up ball bearings.

G [return to top]	Mechanical Instruments Spray Sailkote on wind speed, direction and knot indicators to make them more accurate and keep them working.

H [return to top]	Head Sails Apply Sailkote to genoas and spinnakers to keep them dry and friction free. Sailkote minimizes friction from rubbing during tacks and jibes and maximizes sail life, thus helping to maintain sail shape.

I [return to top]	Mast / Spreaders Sailkote the mast and spreaders to reduce headsail to mast friction during tacks and jibes.

J [return to top]	Telltales With Sailkote, telltales won't stick to sails even when wet.

K [return to top]	Jib Furling Gear Sailkote will lubricate and protect jib furling gear making it last longer and work much easier without gumming up.

L [return to top]	Displacement & Planning Hulls Coat your hull with Sailkote and see how much cleaner the hull will stay at the waterline. The slick, hard, non-porous coating makes it difficult for marine growth and waterborne contaminants to adhere to the hull and slow you down.

M [return to top]	Keels / Centerboards & Rudders In addition to minimizing underwater marine growth and adhesion, Sailkote will help shed kelp and seaweed more easily, and help to maintain laminar flow. Makes raising and lowering daggerboards and centerboards nearly effortless.

N [return to top]	Tiller Head / Pintles & Steering Hardware Sailkote eases movement and increases tiller sensitivity. Keeps rudder hardware corrosion free.
