The Story

The MXLEvo 16 Soft Block is the ultimate solution for yachtsmen seeking a reliable, robust, and easy-to-use block system for heavy-load marine applications. Engineered with high-strength materials and designed for versatility, this soft block enhances your vessel's performance while ensuring seamless operation in various anchoring setups.

Features

  • MXLEvo Excellence: Specifically crafted for both amateur and professional yachtsmen, the MXLEvo series offers a soft block solution capable of handling heavy loads with ease. Available in three distinct sizes to suit diverse marine needs.
  • Economical & User-Friendly: Comes complete with a Dyneema SK78 loop, eliminating the need for specialized technical knowledge. Installation is swift and straightforward on any anchoring point, whether it's a chain plate, head ropes, or other fixtures. The integrated rope housing ensures ropes remain neatly inside the block when not under tension.
  • Exceptional Value: Among the most cost-effective soft blocks available, the MXLEvo delivers top-tier performance without breaking the bank.
  • Heavy Load Capability: Designed for applications requiring significant force and low rope movement speed, making it ideal for use as a mast foot block, halyard tackle, barber hauler, block and tackle systems, sheet returns, large sails, and more.
  • Lightweight & Durable: Combines lightweight design with robust construction. Compared to standard competitors, the MXLEvo 16 is twice as robust, half the weight, and uses a 35% lighter rope with a higher breaking load.
  • Low Maintenance: Featuring a design without moving parts like sheaves, the MXLEvo ensures high reliability and minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Deck Plan Adaptability: The loop can be positioned in two different orientations, allowing for flexible integration into your vessel’s deck layout and anchoring system alignment.

  • Mast Foot Block
  • Halyard Block
