b'SnubbAir Installation videoIt looks like a winch. It mounts like a winch. It cranks like a winch. Its not a winch.First designed to solve a deck layout challenge unique to the J/70, the Harken SnubbAir might look like a smaller, more efficient version of the winch it replaces. But the product has so many potential applications it defies classification as a winch. It could act more like a really large ratcheting foot, cheek block, or even a ratcheting line diverter in the pit. The SnubbAir provides lots of line-holding power even without a winch handle. That muscle could become very popular on an A Scow or a powered-up sport boat where the spinnakers can be more than a handful. Even better, you can just flip the sheet off the drum and jibe. If you need even more holding power, wrap the sheet around the SnubbAir twice or use a winch handle with the optional adapter.SnubbAir comes with four integral threaded studs placed to precisely match the bolt pattern of the B8A winch on the J/70 deck. Start-to-finish, swapping out winches for SnubbAirs takes less than 10 minutes. All washers and Nylok nuts required for mounting are included.Use the optional winch handle adapter to crank the SnubbAir like a winch.The SnubbAir is smaller and lighter than the winch it replaces.J/70J/Boats1301Handle AdapterPart WeightNo. Description oz g Use with1301Winch handle adapter1.8511300 1300SnubbAirDrum Base Fastener Maximum Part Height Weight circle Fasteners holding loadNo. Description in mm in mm in mm oz g in mm mm lb kg 1300SnubbAir3.1279.24.48113.82.7168.817.34893.5790.74 x M61000454Nylok is a registered trademark of Nylok Corporation.191'
