Abstract (en)

The invention is concerned with an apparatus for the slowing-down of the swing of a boom, for instance on board of a sailing-vessel, such as a boom, tiller and the like. The apparatus made according to the invention distinquishes itself by a closed casing that is relatively small and light, with two oval openings, between which a channel - included in the casing - extends in order to take in a flexible element such as a rope, which is attached to the ship between two points that are at some distance from each other. The apparatus has been applied in such a way that at a swing of a boom or tiller the flexible element is being pulled through the channel, the latter exhibiting a slowing-down effect on the flexible element as a result of the friction.
