Harken is pleased to announce its appointment as U.S. distributor for DrSails, the manufacturer of a revolutionary all-in-one adhesive for emergency sail and boat repair. Strong and flexible, this fast-curing, shock resistant adhesive bonds to almost anything…sailcloth, fabric, fiberglass, composites, and metals. DrSails cures above and UNDERWATER—perfect for repairing hulls below the waterline. The two-part adhesive is packaged for easy mixing without measuring. Simply squeeze the packs, cut-and-apply. Or use the multi-use syringe applicators for more precise applications.
“DrSails® adhesive is the answer when I’m sailing and need to make a quick repair. The self-mixing tube makes it easy to apply without mess, and the adhesive (in air) achieves 85% of its cure strength in 25 minutes. During the current Volvo Ocean Race, mainsails are sometimes repaired while flying. A DrSails onboard video shows a crew member making a quick sail repair 80 feet in the air!” – Jim Andersen, USA Sales Manager.
DrSails is available in:
Adhesive packs with static mixtures are offered in 10, 25, and 265 ml sizes for multiple applications; and in 5 and 10 ml single-use blister packs that easily fit in a shirt or pants pocket.
Single use repair packs for carbon, fiberglass and general boat repair contain epoxy adhesive, filler, acetone cleaner wipe, gloves and spreader.

Also available: Replacement mixing nozzles (three to a pack) to fit each size applicator, cleaner wipes (50 per box), and flexible plastic spreaders in packs of 50.
