Flexible 40mm PVC boot to mount under ratchet blocks. This rubber stand-up from Optiparts keeps your block from hitting the deck without snagging lines. Perfect for dinghy sailing!

Protest flag. Little pouch with a cord at the top to tie it to the boom and a Velcro closure at the bottom. Pull the bottom cord and the protest flag comes out.

This is a great product - with the retaining string for that race when the UJ finally gives out! Many a race saved with this product and suitable for all boats!

Inboard boom end for the 40mm Optimist racing boom (EX940). All boom end fittings are made of high quality glass fibre filled nylon and have a firm grip around the mast. This ensures that mast and boom turn together. Diameters given are outside tube diameters.

The most popular round type maststep for the Optimist dinghy. This Optimist maststep has an oval cup, which allows the mast to tilt forward when going downwind. Different mast rakes can easily be repeated using the scale on the base. Separately a mast step spring lock can be purchased. The stainless steel spring prevents the nut from turning accidentally. There is no need for additional locking nuts anymore.
