What I discovered was the overall position of the halyard and top swivel was
critical. Assuming you have a full hoist sail and no retainer, you need to
adjust the shackle length at deck level to get the halyard as far up as you can
without running the nicropress into the sheave. Too high and it
ssues with furling, at least at the top of
the mast!

It's important to have the halyard connecting to the furler at not too narrow
an angle. Otherwise the halyard will wrap around the furler. If the angle is
too narrow, you need to have a retainer mounted on the mast below the place

Matt.
Because I use the furler only for cruising I replaced the snap-shackle
on the furler with a standard small shackle and do have a snap-shackle
on halyard. This allows me to host racing sails and attach the halyard
to the foredeck when no sail is raised. Besides the entry angle at the

While on the topic of furlers, I noticed a couple times last summer that we had
difficulty unfurling the sail. My best guess is that the wire rope thimble
holding the snap shackle onto the halyard was banging into something up top.
