Capsize protection cushion

The capsize protection cushion keeps the masthead of dinghies or catamarans on the water surface. Prevents capsizing and makes it easier to right the boat. For preheating in the masthead. Available in two sizes. An airbag for dinghies. The SECUMAR capsize protection cushion works almost like an airbag - as an inconspicuous package it is preheated in the masthead and only unfolds its true power and size when danger threatens. A catamaran is particularly at risk of capsizing with its mast. Due to the large lever arm, a relatively small buoyancy in the masthead is already able to prevent worse. This makes it easier for the crew to right the ship. Capsize protection in the masthead. As soon as the masthead is tilted into the water, the capsize protection cushion is activated and inflated fully automatically with CO2 gas. The bulging cushion immediately stops any further capsizing of the mast. The system has proven itself for catamarans (Prindle and Tornado), for large dinghies (Conger) and also for cutters (marine cutter in GRP construction, for both masts). Protection of the sails. In addition, when capsizing in shallow waters, the sails are particularly affected, as well as the mast. Once white sails have been dragged through mud, they will never be completely white again. Therefore, a capsize protection cushion is worthwhile just to protect the sails. Available in 2 sizes. The capsize protection cushion is offered in two different load capacities with corresponding CO2 cartridges (KSK 20 and KSK 40).
