Diverse Yacht Services identified a market for these innovative pieces of equipment. As most of the team are sailors themselves, they recognise the need for certain products and this is why Diverse are on the cutting edge of new marine equipment. For further information on any of these products emails us at info@diverseyachts.com or phone on +44(0) 23 8045 3399
Loadcells
Diverse were the pioneers of the loadsense, an intelligent and precise piece of equipment that measures forestay tension and/or calibration of other rigging loads. Loadcells are now found on all Volvo and America's Cup yachts as well as many racing yachts and superyachts. There are a variety of sizes that take certain load ranges.
Learn more about the Loadsense and the ranges available from Diverse.
Endoscopes
For a long time there was no way to see under the waterline and check the hull of the yacht whilst sailing. Diverse solved this problem by introducing the endoscope. A long, thin tube with a lens on one end and an eyepiece on the other, the endoscope is pasted through a hull fitting and enables the user to see 360 degrees around the hull. This is useful to spot debris caught on the keel, rudder or prop, to check the prop has closed properly and to identify any problems below the waterline.
Endoscopes come in different lengths to suit every need and standard are kept in stock.
Endoscope Through Hull Fitting
The through hull fittings are custom made by Diverse.

Fairfits
Diverse identified the need for fairfits 15 years ago and they have become a must for most performance yachts. A flush through hull fitting, the fairfit is an outlet for different uses that causes no drag. They come in many sizes and are precisely made from stainless steel. 3 standard sizes are kept in stock.

- DIV-FAIR2 1" Fairfit Valve
- DIV-FAIR3 1 1/2" Fairfit Valve
B&G Vertical Wands
Diverse realised a need for more accurate wind data on race boats and so worked with B&G to design the vertical masthead wand. At the masthead there is a considerable amount of upwash of air off the sails, which affects the wind readings. To avoid this and make wind readings more precise a tall wand was designed to position the wind sensor in clean air above the upwash. There are a variety of sizes to suit every yacht and custom wands can be designed for increased efficiency.
