This Harken Performa 46.2PT self-tailing winch is a plain-top 2-speed winch in black aluminum, developed for efficient trimming on board racing yachts.
The Performa series combines Harken's efficient Radial technology with a sandblasted grip inspired by carbon fiber racing winches. This provides secure handling of sheets under high loads and precise control during active sail trimming.
The plain-top construction is particularly suitable where trimming is frequent and where one person operates the winch while another handles the sheet. Composite roller bearings and bushings reduce friction under load, while 17-4 PH stainless steel gears and pawls contribute to strength and corrosion resistance.
