Dinghy Through-Deck Block

Product description

Dinghy blocks are designed for the small boat sailor who needs a lightweight, low profile block. The in-head shackle system keeps the length of this block very short.

Made with Delrin® sheaves and cheeks with stainless steel sideplates and shackle. These light duty blocks are not meant for use on heavy course racing keel boats or on scows and catamarans.

Dinghy blocks are also used as control line blocks on larger boats, particularly for traveler controls.
