Harken Kicker Differences

[Dan LXIX]

Is there actually a difference between the Harken kicker that Laser Performance supply and the one available from places such as Sailboats.co.uk? The photos below show differences, the one on the left is from Laser.

There doesn't seem to be much difference, but I'm just about to order one, so I wanted to make sure.

Other than the fact that the orientation is different and the one on the left is rigged up, I fail to see a difference.

Theyre the same thing. One is pre-rigged and one you have to run.

No difference aside from the line they are packaged with.

Ah but what about the Cost?

Same hardware different color lines, the lines are very similar quality and you can always get new lines

if its pre-rigged you'll want to adjust it and check it out with a dry rig before sailing

Surprisingly, a few £ cheaper from Laser. Maybe the extra cost is for the plastic pipe
