roller furling

posted 09-12-2008 by greg

Ive added roller furling to the jib (Yankee Jib/Yellow sail). What a help. Used a cheap drum and swivel set up. Its not for reefing, but then this is a small sail and is usually the first to come down when the wind picks up (first sail reduction being to take a reef in the main). The roller furling keeps you from having to bring in the sail while out on the sprit. Much safer and easier.
