Features:

Deck-Mounted Power for Performance Sailing

The Lewmar Racing Double Footblock is engineered to deliver uncompromising performance in high-load, deck-mounted sail-handling systems. Developed for racing yachts and fast performance cruisers, it provides reliable, efficient load management where stability, strength, and precision are essential.

Double-Sheave Footblock Configuration

The twin-sheave design offers increased mechanical advantage while maintaining a low, stable deck profile. Fixed directly to the deck, the double footblock ensures a consistent lead angle and controlled load transfer, making it ideal for applications such as mainsheets, traveller systems, and high-load control cascades where repeatable performance is critical.

Race-Grade Construction

Manufactured using premium marine-grade materials and precision engineering, the Racing Double Footblock is built to withstand sustained static loads, dynamic shock forces, and the rigours of competitive sailing. Robust side plates, accurately profiled sheaves, and a reinforced mounting base deliver exceptional structural integrity, wear resistance, and long-term reliability in aggressive sailing environments.

Smooth, Low-Friction Performance

Optimised sheave geometry reduces friction under load, promoting efficient rope flow during trimming and easing. Even load distribution across both sheaves improves system efficiency and reduces handling effort, helping protect running rigging from unnecessary wear during prolonged use and high-intensity manoeuvres.

Installation & Application

Purpose-designed for permanent deck mounting, the Lewmar Racing Double Footblock integrates seamlessly into modern racing and performance-focused deck layouts. Well suited to boats where weight, reliability, and efficiency must be carefully balanced, it represents a professional-grade solution backed by Lewmar’s long-standing racing hardware heritage.
