A properly sized sheet car allows you to precisely adjust the sheeting angle, allowing you to adapt the sail shape to different wind conditions and get the most out of your boat.
Our Viadana sheet cars are made of reinforced nylon, a material that combines lightness and robustness. This ensures that the car does not add excessive weight to your boat while being able to withstand the high stresses generated by the sail during sailing. The corrosion resistance of reinforced nylon guarantees long-lasting durability, even in harsh marine environments.
Installing a sheet car is a relatively simple operation that can be performed independently with minimal equipment. It is essential to choose a model that is compatible with the size of your boat and the type of track already installed or intended to be installed. Carefully check the product specifications before purchasing.
An efficient sheet car allows you to adjust sail tension precisely, improving the boat's response to changes in wind and making sailing smoother and more controlled. This translates into greater speed and better upwind performance, allowing you to achieve your sailing goals more easily. Consider upgrading your existing sheet block system with a new sheet track for optimal performance.

It is advisable to inspect the sheet car at least once a year, checking for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Regularly lubricate the moving parts with a lubricant specifically designed for marine environments to ensure optimal operation and prolong the life of the car.
When choosing a sheet car, consider the size of your boat (up to 6 meters), the type of sail you use (mainsail, jib, genoa), and the prevailing wind conditions in your sailing area. An oversized car will offer greater strength but will also be heavier and more expensive. An undersized car may not be sufficient to withstand the stresses of the sail.
Routine maintenance consists of regular cleaning with fresh water to remove salt and dirt, and lubrication of moving parts. In case of significant wear or damage, it is advisable to replace the car with a new model to ensure the safety and efficiency of the sail control system.
Installing a sheet car is generally simple but requires minimal manual dexterity and the use of appropriate tools. If you do not feel confident, it is advisable to rely on a professional to avoid errors and ensure correct and safe installation.
