Harken T18 Soft Attach Block - 18 mm (23/32") - 2698

A select group of racers put the Harken T18™ Block through its paces at the windy 2011 F18 North American Championships, installing the blocks in downhauls, outhauls, and other high-load control systems, including the jib. In a regatta that saw 20 knot winds and 5 foot seas, the T18 performed flawlessly, receiving resounding thumbs up from the competitors.
