Good point http://www.catalina27.org/Fleet4/halyardret.jpg

 

The restrainer is the block on the face of the mast. Without it the halyard passes perilously close to the top of the furler extrusion and at times can start to wrap around the extrusion and jam the furling process.

Gerry,

Make sure you add a halyard restrainer that will keep the halyard from wrapping around the furling system or on the forestay.  I will be adding one this year because of that problem.
