Selden Rodkicker 20L (2260 mm) – Standard Gas Spring 1200N

The Selden Rodkicker Type 20L – Min Length 2260 mm – 1200 N Gas Spring is a sturdy, high-performance rigid vang designed to improve sail control and boom support on larger sailing yachts. Equipped with a 1200 N gas spring, this Rodkicker provides reliable upward force on the boom when the kicking strap is eased, helping open the mainsail leech and aiding in sail trim — particularly useful when adjusting the main in varied wind conditions.

This rigid vang also prevents the boom from dropping into the cockpit or onto the coachroof during manoeuvres, enhancing safety and making reefing and sail adjustment more efficient. The system effectively doubles the purchase of your kicking strap (kicking strap not included), giving better mechanical advantage for trimming and tension control. Built from corrosion-resistant materials with a robust construction, the Rodkicker Type 20L is suited for demanding marine environments and long service life.
