Re: Stus-List furling line

My biggest concern furling a loaded genoa would be the twisting force on the aluminum foil extrusions and especially the joints between them. I try to get the genoa behind (to leeward of) the main before furling. Seems to work quite well (no winch required). Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C&C 37+ East Gr

Re: Stus-List furling line

I do. I think that is pretty standard as part of any furling install. All of the manufacturers seem to recommend it. Bill Bina On 5/29/2017 9:48 PM, Dennis C. via CnC-List wrote: How many of you have a ratcheting block on your furling line? Dennis C. ___

Re: Stus-List furling line

What about a high tech line that is smaller than 5/16 diameter for the first 30 feet or so and then larger diameter for the final amount where your hands work the rope. Would that not fit better inside the furling drum? Mike Persistence HAlifax From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.

I was having an issue with too much furling line on our boom furler and schaefer sent me a replacement furling line with the cover removed for about 20'. (not for free but...) It really helped with the bulk on the spool Danny On 5/30/2017 8:17 AM, Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List wrote: What abou

Re: Stus-List furling line

Mike, For what it’s worth, you’re not going to break a furling line, even it is loading up when used as a “reefing line”. Unless you choose some ratty old clothesline, sun bleached polypropylene, or a chafed and pulled old dinghy halyard, the rope isn’t really the stress point and shouldn’t fa

Re: Stus-List furling line

+1 for the resistance to kinking and hockling. We have very limited selection of ropes here and I am using a standard double braid and after two seasons it is showing signs of internal twisting. The original line was much better. Marek Original message From: Chuck Gilchrest

Stus-List furling line

I just replaced my line with 3/8 polyester. Easier on the hands, plenty of room on the drum. As pointed out, strength is not an issue. Sometimes it's easier to use the winch to furl the sail, but it is never hard, so my guess is I've never had a line load of over 150 lbs. It's wear and tear on m
