in heavy wind conditions I need extra two wraps of the furling line around the drum to furl the sail completely.

The marker the diameter of the drum, the longer the circumference and thus the longer the line required for one rotation - but the circumference of a roll of sail will be potentially very different. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
