Selecting Replacement Sailboat Hardware
An important consideration when choosing new hardware for sailboats is the working loads that the hardware will be subjected to. It is best to get hardware that is in the middle of its recommended usage range and has at least the strength of any parts that it is replacing. When choosing blocks, deck organizers and other pieces of sailboat hardware that deflect lines important considerations include the size of the line and the load on the line. Consider what you liked about your boat's old hardware setup and what you are looking to change with new hardware for your sailboat. Blocks vary not only in sheave diameter but also in working load, so it is important to consider the load that you are exerting on your sailboat hardware blocks.

When shopping for replacement genoa cars, traveler cars, or other sailboat hardware that uses a track it is very important to determine the type of track that your boat has as different tracks and cars are not compatible. Both Harken and Lewmar make a track that makes variable hole spacing track so you can replace sailboat hardware that uses track without drilling new holes in your boat.

Sailboat Hardware for Cruising and Racing
Whether you are racing or cruising, quality functional deck hardware will make your sailing experience more enjoyable. Racing sailors know how critical it is to have well-running blocks, powerful winches and cleats and clutches that hold well. Cruising sailors also benefit from having quality, durable sailboat hardware when making a long passage or entertaining guests during a sunset cruise. A common misconception is that only racers will benefit from modern lightweight sailboat hardware such as Harken Carbo Blocks, in fact, modern carbon blocks and other sailboat hardware benefit both races and cruisers by being stronger, lighter and longer-lasting. Cruisers and racers will also benefit from having well-organized deck hardware. Racers will benefit by having better boat handling and maneuvers and cruisers will benefit from setting their boat up with sailboat hardware that is geared towards making their boat easier to sail short-handed.
