Nigel Mills has designed and created two brass rubbing strips for mounting aft of the halyard and downhaul cleats on the cabin top of a sailboat. These strips provide a durable and protective surface for the halyard and downhaul lines to run over, preventing damage and wear to the cabin top.
The strips are made from a high-quality brass material, which is known for its durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal. The strips are shaped to fit the angle of the cabin top, providing a flush and secure fit that won’t interfere with the operation of the halyard or downhaul lines.
Installing the strips is a simple process, requiring only a few basic tools and a bit of time. The strips can be secured in place using screws or bolts, depending on the specific needs of the sailboat. Once installed, the strips provide a reliable and long-lasting solution for protecting the cabin top from the wear and tear of halyard and downhaul lines.
Overall, Nigel Mills’ brass rubbing strips are an excellent addition to any sailboat, providing a high-quality and practical solution for protecting the cabin top from damage and wear. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a novice, these strips are sure to provide years of reliable service and help keep your sailboat looking its best.
