Secured cleat base for remote sheet release
SeaSideTech’s active cleat base is mounted underneath a classic cleat, enabling remote release of a sheet. Using a push-button, remote control , or any other automated system (an anti-capsize system, for example), the cleat can be opened from inside the boat or from the fore-deck - for example, in the vent of facing a risky situation.
On-board intelligence
Derived from the active safety systems of the automobile sector, the active cleat includes a controller which manages both the opening of the cleat and the self-test functions. It offers realtime assurances in terms of operation, reliability and availability. The user is informed in the event of a technical problem preventing the device's mechanical opening from being guaranteed (severed cable, disconnection, or blocked servomotor).
Integration with on-board electronics
The support can be integrated with on-board electronics. CANbus technology enables the synchronized control of several cleats, as well as remote control of correct functioning.
This product was developed in collaboration with Michel Desjoyeaux
The famous skipper’s extensive experience was put to use during the development of the Active Cleat, to make sure it meets ocean racing performance criteria.
Active Safety: Stay in control!
Active Safety concerns everything which has been designed to avoid accidents, both in and around the boat.
