SOFT SHACKLES

SOFT SHACKLES new baby brother the CAPTIVE SHACKLE.
This latest feature added to the soft shackle is designed to prevent it from going overboard. The shackle when undone remains captive on the sheet or halyard it is attached to. The shackle is easily installed and ideal for that clumsy crewman that is always dropping things!





Introducing the SOFT SHACKLE by MPYachting.

Prices start from $16.50 each.




Talk to Matt from MPYachting regarding how best to improve the weight and safety of all your yacht's attachment points.
Gone are the days of anticipating when your stainless shackles will break, bend or damage your boat & sails.
Replace your Brass piston hanks with SOFT SHACKLES made from DYNEX that will never corrode.




Soft Shackles can be custom made to any size required, with safe working loads from 800kg up to 15 Tonnes.



Soft shackle used to hold mainsheet to Padeye on America's Cup yacht. Safe workload in excess of 7 tonnes.
