Sprits

Optimist Sprit: Spars, Halyards and Racing Systems by Optiparts

The sprit is the spar that tensions the top of the Optimist mainsail and shapes the sail: here you find racing models and every sprit halyard spare, with Optiparts quality. Choose between Silver Regatta, BlackGold and the flexible MK3 Optimax for lighter crews, matching stiffness to your weight.

The section is completed by halyard systems with low-friction rings and the sprit system with a Harken block, Vectran lines, 4 mm handles, 27 and 29 mm end fittings and dedicated protections. Everything you need for precise control of the sail head.

A sprit of the correct flex and a well-tuned halyard noticeably improve sail performance in light and strong wind alike. The components comply with the controlled measurements of the Optimist class.
