Product details

GEMINI X - The proven high-performance sheet is now available in bright colours!
High-performance sheet for cruising. Double braid for extremely even load of core and cover. The special finish on the polyester material gives GEMINI X extra strength and durability.

Order your rope conveniently by the metre – or configure it according to your preferences in our rope configurator.

Features:

  • GEMINI X double braid. Core and cover are evenly loaded.
  • Unique flexibility with best handling and long-life.
  • Multipurpose line for sheet, vang, trim control line etc.
  • Particularly suitable as mainsail and genoa sheet on self-tailing winches.
  • Can be used as high performance mooring line on large boats as well.
  • The GEMINI X SPORT tends to slip out of the halyard stopper.
  • Runs very smoothly on sheaves, even with smaller sheave diameters


Cleaning ropes:
Please note the following when cleaning/washing polyester and Dyneema ropes:

  • Hand wash (SVB recommendation):
    • Place the rope in a large bucket or bathtub and fill with warm water.
    • Clean the rope thoroughly with your hands.
    • Do not use regular washing powder (you can find a possible alternative here).
    • Do not use fabric softener.
    • Then wash the rope with clean water.
  • Washing machine:
    • Only wash rope in a cotton bag.
    • Wash at a maximum of 30 degrees.
    • Do not use regular washing powder (you can find a possible alternative here).
    • Do not use fabric softener.
  • Do not tumble dry the rope.
    • After washing, allow the ropes to drip dry (protected from UV radiation).

Very pleasant.
Very comfortable sheets with good shackles. Even with a bit more pressure on the genoa, they're easy to handle without gloves. The color scheme is helpful for "guests" who aren't yet familiar with port and starboard and the term "sheet" ;-).
