Steven that sounds like a halyard may be catching the furler at the top of the 
mast, and getting wrapped up in the sail...;

Subject: Stus-List Ultrafurl - sticking


Hi All.


It seems the drum on my ultrafurl is sticking. I know that other C&Cs used this 
furling gear so I was hoping for some feedback from other ultrafurl owners. I 
dropped the swivel down and it is fine so I'm blaming the drum. It needs a lot 
of coaxing to turn and it will turn, then come to a stop, turn, then stop, turn 
then stop .. etc. The energy required to turn it is quite high, I have to go 
forward and manually turn the drum to furl or unfurl the sail. How can I 
troubleshoot this? I'm nervous that this will require some forestay action but 
I'm hoping not. 
According to their site it can be installed without dropping the forestay so 
I'm hoping I can take it apart too. It's an Ultrafurl 500. I'm waiting on an 
email back from ultrafurl.


Any ideas?
Thanks,


Steve
