Barton Marine will be introducing the Line Tamer, a new rope handling device for boat owners at METS 2005. Stray halyards and lines can be secured around the Barton Line Tamer to ensure that they are kept neat and untangled whilst sailing or on the mooring.
“We understand that efficiency is important and we have designed the Line Tamer so that it is easy to install and use,” comments Paul Botterill, Director at Barton Marine. “It provides crew and skipper with the assurance and convenience that a line can be quickly grabbed without having to detangle the rope before adjusting the sail.”
Barton Marine is one of the UK's leading manufacturers of deckware and its new Line Tamer continues to assist the process of keeping lines and halyards in order. The Line Tamer, not only ideal for yachts, can also be used to neatly stow a mooring line on a motorboat, making it easier to keep the line ready for quick mooring.
The unobtrusive, compact and ergonomic design of the Line Tamer with its smooth, curved edge does not cause harm to crew that brush past nor does it snag the rope.
Highly durable, the Line Tamer is produced from the same glass filled Nylon as the sides of the Barton Blocks and will retail at the price of £4.00 for a pair. The Line Tamer will keep ropes secure and tidy from a dinghy to a yacht or motorboat of any size. Further information will be available from the Barton Marine team at stand 01.240 throughout METS 2005.
