 Lazyhook
The
Lazyhook is a self orientating trapeze ring allowing
the sailor to hook on after wire to wire manoeuvres
regardless of the orientation of the trapeze handle.
This enables single handed sailors to perform consistent
wire to wire manoeuvres. It also allows the crews of
double handed dinghies to concentrate on trimming without
having to assist their helms after manoeuvres.

The Lazyhook concept was first devised
from the Musto Skiff class where competitive gain could
be sought using wire to wire tacking and gybing techniques.
However the current popular bobble trapeze handle and
2:1 adjuster could leave the helm unable to hook on
with the trapeze ring orientated the wrong way. The
Lazyhook’s integral tube and bearing system allow the
ring to drop under self weight whilst minimizing out
of plane rotation to ease hooking and unhooking.
The Lazyhook is constructed from 316 grade
stainless steel as required in a marine environment.
Its simple design and sturdy construction ensures product
longevity in the most demanding of dinghy classes.
The product is a unit with all accessories
for connection to a standard 20mm Holt single block.
The Lazyhook can be purchased with or without the single
block at £19/12 respectively plus postage and
packaging from Reekie Designs Limited by phone. Website
is currently under construction and will allow online
ordering and secure payment by the 22nd of March 2007.
