A new work horse, already praised by both racing and cruising sailors after two years of sea trials. The interaction between the ART drum and the self-tailer strikes the perfect balance of grip and function.

Tacking and gybing made easy

The S-series simplifies the manoeuvre of tacking and makes the handling of a highly loaded sheet safer and quicker. The grip on the winch drum combined with a unique self-tailer enables the trimmer to pull the slack out of the sheet with the line sitting in the self-tailer and with the winch handle in position.

A great advantage for the racing sailor who can pre-load the sheet into the self-tailer of the windward winch prior to tacking and then sheet home and set the trim of the jib instantly on the new tack. Simply pull in the slack and turn the handle a turn or two to get full tension.

The cruising sailor will appreciate simpler and safer manoeuvres by not having to hand hold a tensioned sheet whilst trying to load it into the self-tailer and searching around for the winch handle.

Choose from six different models. Please see the full specification of each model below and further details on the ATTACHMENTS tab below.

Seldén S-Series 2-Speed Self-Tailing Winches: Precision Meets Power

The S-Series 2-Speed Self-Tailing Winches from Seldén represent a new generation of winch technology, engineered for both racing and cruising sailors. With a focus on grip, control, and ease of use, these winches combine cutting-edge materials with thoughtful design to deliver exceptional performance on deck.

Key Features

 Asymmetric Rib Technology (ART)

  • Unique Drum Design: The winch drums are forged and machined from hard-anodized aluminum and feature asymmetrically placed vertical ribs.

  • Enhanced Grip: This design ensures that lines under load deform slightly over the ribs, providing a secure grip without sudden jumps when easing off.

  • Smooth Release: The ART system allows for a more controlled and harmonious line release, reducing the risk of slippage or backlash.

Two-Speed Manual Operation

  • High and Low Gear Ratios: Each winch offers two manual speeds, allowing sailors to switch between fast line retrieval and high-torque grinding.

  • Efficient Trimming: Ideal for both light and heavy loads, making sail adjustments quicker and more precise.

Self-Tailing Mechanism

  • Hands-Free Operation: The self-tailer holds the line securely, freeing up the sailor’s hands and simplifying maneuvers.

  • Pre-Load Capability: Racers can pre-load sheets into the self-tailer before a tack, enabling instant trimming on the new tack.

  • Safety Boost: Cruisers benefit from safer handling by avoiding the need to manually hold tensioned lines.

Installation & Adaptability

  • Durable Construction: Plates are made from hard-anodized black aluminum, matching the winch base diameter for a seamless fit.
