The UK sailing season is creeping closer and closer and with it the highly anticipated Allen Endurance Series, which returns for a 6th season.
The Allen Endurance Series combines the UK’s best long-distance events to give high-performance Catamaran and Skiff sailors a season-long series to compete for.
For 2023 the series has unfortunately had to be reduced to just two events – The Solent Forts Race & The East Coast Piers Race. Meaning this year there will be no discards, so consistency will be key!
Both of the events will be individually supported with an array of Allen sponsored prizes awarded across the fleet of competitors. Also up for grabs will be the usual £300, £200 & £100 Allen vouchers for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places respectively.
The eXtreme High Load block range continues to grow with the addition of the new 20mm XHL double blocks, available with or without a becket.
The new A2022XHL & A2023XHL follow the success of the 30mm XHL ILCA Top Block. A block which was explicitly designed for the ILCA vang system. The two new 20mm doubles are no different and have been developed alongside the world’s best ILCA sailors and riggers. However, they are more than suitable for any application which requires working loads up to 600Kg.
Using a block with a 600Kg working load may seem like overkill for a boat such as the ILCA, but with top-level sailors continuing to work harder and drive their kit to the limits more often it would come as no surprise that sailors are now pushing the kit beyond its normal limits, which has lead to top-level athletes wanting a block that can withstand the punishment without compromising on performance.
We’re pleased to be exhibiting for a second time at the new home of the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show, Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, over the weekend of the 25th and 26th of February.
We will have a range of new products on display, as well as, a fully Allen-fitted Scorpion, which will be showcasing some of our latest flagship products.
What a fantastic 10 days we had at Boot Dusseldorf showcasing a wide variety of our new and existing products.
If you didn’t manage to make then worry not, in the interview below Mark Jardine, from Yachts and Yachting Online, talks to our Head of Marketing, Ben Harden, about some of the new product launches.
