The LoadR Wide Top makes it easy to stock the cooler up with goodies and keep them secure. The backpack has a 24 liter capacity and fits 24 cans comfortably with ice.

SPINLOCK XX Powerclutches
One problem with conventional rope clutches is that there tends to be some amount of slip that occurs when the line is under a heavy load. Spinlock’s new XX range of clutches aims to reduce this issue by holding loads 50% higher than any conventional clutch. Their XX Powerclutches present an ideal solution for genoa and spinnaker halyards on performance yachts in various sizes. Yachts from 35 to 50 feet will choose from the XXA range and for those looking for enhanced performance on small diameter blended covered lines check out the new XXB. Spinlock’s latest jaw technology offers consistent holding of blended covered rope and a smooth controlled release action. The one-piece jaw set is easy to remove and clean and there are access ports for fresh water flushing. The clutches are available in white coated, black anodized, or silver polished alloy to match the deck or rig.
