Re: Stus-List Ultrafurl - sticking

To stop furling lines binding up in the drum, de core the furling line that wraps around the drum. Leave the core in at the end of the line where you handle it. This will reduce the bulk on the drum by half.  sam :-) 403-617-6280 From: Martin DeYoung Sent: Monday, July 15, 2013 11:20 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Reply To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Ultrafurl - sticking > We've also had experience where there was not enough backstay tension > causing the foil to sag giving the impression  of 'stop, turn, stop' as you > fight the curve.   With Calypso’s Harken system both halyard and backstay tension have to be “tight” to avoid excessive resistance or halyard wrap.  Once in a while the furling line will bind up in the drum, especially when handling the #1 headsails (150%).   Martin Calypso 1971 C&C 43 Seattle From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of honeys...@aol.com Sent: Monday, July 15, 2013 9:31 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Ultrafurl - sticking   Sweeeet.   In a message dated 7/15/2013 12:20:24 P.M.
