Delta Drogue 48"

Are you looking for a safer way to control your boat’s speed while offshore fishing? Consider investing in a para-tech delta sea anchor drogue that limits the boat's speed, reduces the yaw angle, and provides steering assistance on solid seas.  The Delta Drogue uses the "guide surface principle." The design is a triangular delta shape that provides strong, uniform flow separation at all leading edges. Shape retention is achieved with the pressure of the water inside (similar to the "Ballute" drogues used in aerospace applications). The relatively small mouth at the leading edge makes it extremely unlikely that one will get turned inside out (a problem associated with large cones and small parachute drogues). Also, the three ears of the Delta Drogue have the effect of increasing drag as speed increases. The Delta Drogue is made from heavy duty vinyl coated material. Some Uses for Drogues: The above notwithstanding, speed-limiting drogues can be of immense value in strong following seas
