TB Genoa Car With Stirrup & Becket

Controlled Headsail Performance Under Load

The Lewmar TB Genoa Car with Stirrup & Becket is engineered to provide precise, dependable headsail lead adjustment for high-load cruising and performance sailing applications. Designed to optimise sail geometry and maintain confident trim control, it delivers a stable, efficient interface between headsail sheets and track systems.

Track-Bearing (TB) Genoa Car Design

The Track-Bearing (TB) configuration ensures loads are transmitted directly and efficiently into the genoa track, maintaining accurate alignment and smooth movement under tension. This stable load path reduces friction and eliminates binding, allowing controlled fore-and-aft adjustment even when the sail is heavily loaded, ideal for responsive trimming in changing conditions.

Stirrup-Mounted Sheet Connection

The integrated stirrup provides a secure, optimally positioned attachment point for genoa sheets or blocks. By maintaining correct sheet alignment relative to the sail, the stirrup helps preserve sail shape, reduce chafe, and improve overall trimming efficiency, particularly important on boats carrying larger headsails.

Integrated Becket for Compact Systems

A built-in becket offers a fixed termination point for control lines, enabling compact purchase or adjustment systems where required. This integration supports efficient load paths and a reduced component count, helping maintain clean deck layouts and simplified line management.

Smooth, Reliable operation

Precision-engineered bearing surfaces and load paths ensure low-friction, controlled travel along the track. This smooth operation improves trimming accuracy, reduces crew effort, and supports consistent performance during repeated adjustments in both cruising and race scenarios.

Marine-Grade Construction

Manufactured from high-strength, corrosion-resistant marine-grade materials, the TB Genoa Car with Stirrup & Becket is built to withstand sustained sheet loads, repeated use, and harsh offshore environments. Its robust construction ensures long-term durability and dependable performance across demanding sailing programmes.

Optimised for Modern Headsail Systems

Designed to maintain correct sheeting angles and efficient load distribution the genoa ar helps maximise sail performance while minimising wear on sails and rigging. Its combination of stability, controlled movement, and integrated hardware makes it well suited to modern cruising and performance yachts alike.

System integration & Application

Fully compatible with Lewmar genoa track systems, the TB Genoa Car with Stirrup & Becket is suitable for both new installations and professional refits. Commonly specified on cruising and performance yachts, it provides a refine, system-led solution backed by Lewmar’s proven expertise in high-load sail-handling hardware.
