A trapeze system adapted for use on a sailing vessel having a substantially vertical mast, such trapeze system comprising a pair of substantially rigid hanging members connected at their upper extremities to an upper extremity of a mast in such a manner that the hanging members are respectively in port and starboard positions relative to the mast and each is capable of movement on its respective side of the mast, and means for releaseably connecting said hanging members to a trapeze harness.
A trapeze system adapted for use on a sailing vessel having a substantially vertical mast, the trapeze system comprising:
- a pair of substantially rigid hanging members connected at their upper extremities to an upper extremity of a mast in such a manner that each hanging member is capable of movement on its respective side of the mast;
- means for releasably connecting said hanging members to a trapeze harness;
- and
- a trapeze bar joining the hanging members adjacent their lower extremities, the trapeze bar being formed in two parts which are interconnected and including flexible means for biasing the two parts of the trapeze bar into an end abutting relationship.
A trapeze system adapted for use on a sailing vessel having a substantially vertical mast, the trapeze system comprising:
- a pair of substantially rigid hanging members connected at their upper extremities to an upper extremity of a mast in such a manner that each hanging member is capable of movement on its respective side of the mast;
- means for releasably connecting said hanging members to a trapeze harness;
- and
- a trapeze bar joining the hanging members adjacent their lower extremities, said means for releasably connecting said hanging members including a trapeze harness hook and a ring slidable along the trapeze bar and along at least a portion of the hanging members and engageable by said hook, the hanging members further including means to secure said ring in at least one fixed position.
