All jibs shall be fitted with hanks, all of which when the sail is set as a jib, must be attached to the forestay. Head foils and sewn luff ropes may be used in lieu of hanks. Only one halyard may be used to hoist and lower head sails. Non-overlapping jibs may be fitted with battens.Chris, I think the last boat we had with one was Olivia - of course. The roller furler is not a "standard" feature of the Catalina 27 design. PHRF should give a credit if fitted.On a different topic, the Fleet 8 approved shape is the Comp-u-keel "improved" shape.Spent 12 hours under the hull this weekend - $1000 is what I'm spending on vitamin I !!pz-----Original Message-----From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Fri, 14 Mar 2008 11:25 pmSubject: Re: catalina27-talk: Roller Furler on a 1984 Catalina Alright old bud - You are the one that raced the C27 PHRF, but are you seriously saying that I could race my POS C27 without the tuff luff foil vs. a boat that had the equipment to do a peel and say we were equal? Having the luff system implies that you will be peeling. Not gonna happen by IC27 rules and bylaws. PHRF may not penalize, but our 213 rating does not include anything other than a hanking system...
