Karver KFEC4.5 EcoConcept Furler: Sustainable Innovation for Boats 45–54 Feet
The Karver KFEC4.5 EcoConcept Furler brings sustainable innovation to the trusted design of the Karver KF4.5 Standard Version, offering reliable performance for boats ranging from 45 to 54 feet. This eco-conscious model maintains the durability and functionality expected from the KF V3 range while incorporating environmentally friendly materials.
In this EcoConcept version, carbon fibre in the continuous line wheel has been replaced with bio-based linen plastics, a renewable material designed to provide the same strength and smooth performance with a reduced environmental footprint. This innovation underscores Karver’s commitment to sustainability in modern sail handling systems.
The anodised aluminium jaw from the standard version is replaced with a moulded stainless steel jaw, designed to use fewer raw materials while significantly extending the product’s lifespan. This durable and efficient design ensures long-term reliability in demanding sailing conditions while minimizing environmental impact.
The KFEC4.5 includes all the core features of the KF V3 range, such as the reinforced ABS casing with K-Krok impact resistance technology, a 2-in-1 K-Snap snap shackle for versatile attachment options, and a remote locking mechanism for the drum to ensure precise furling control. The swivel, also protected with K-Krok, contributes to durability and consistent performance over time.
The Karver KFEC4.5 EcoConcept Furler is a forward-thinking choice for sailors managing boats between 45 and 54 feet. By integrating bio-based linen plastics and material-efficient innovations, this furler delivers reliable sail handling while reducing environmental impact, supporting a more sustainable future for sailing.
