Agreed on the stack pack. We've just had ours a couple months, but the main is so much easier to deal with that we go out more often, and with less stress. Especially on our new (to us) bigger boat, it's really nice to head up to the wind, release the main halyard and have the sail drop into the stack pack. No muss, no sail flaking, no putting the cover on. Kindest Regards, Bruce Whitmore C&C 37/40+, "Astralis"Madiera Beach, Fl847.404.5092

Now a little older, wiser and sporting a Stackpack too. Not the fastest setup, but still finding a way to win club races. And my wife and I can be off the mooring and sailing in minutes. Put-away is just as quick. I am sure we use our boat many times more than those around us just because it is so easy. No sail- folding arguments either! Enjoy!

It's kind of interesting being the throwback to older times among all the jazz on my dock. Alas, I asked our rigger to quote a Schaefer furler last week.
