Baudat Wire Rope Cutters
Picture this: You are in a heavy sea, the wind is gusting, the boat broaches and the mast comes crashing down and you need to cut it free before it starts to damage the hull and endanger life. All you have on board are bulky, lever type wire cutters, which are awkward and unwieldy to deploy if you can locate them in the locker.
What better then to carry on board a set of Baudat single-handed wire rope cutters which use a rathetting technique to cut through your rigging wire with ease. Because of their physical size and weight they can be clipped to a bulkhead for convenience and are small enough to be kept in a cargo pocket of your foul weather gear. Cutting the rigging free will be a quick and painless exercise; sorry about the mast!
