Curt, There are furlers available that allow you to drop the furling drum and use a jib that has a bolt rope. You may be able to have the best of both worlds if you can have a loft install a rope slider to replace the hanks on your present sails. You would still need a jib cut just for the furl

Hi Listers, Ok so I'm replacing the cast acrylic lens in the forward hatch. Is Sikaflex 295UV the way to go to rebed the lens? I got new hatch and handle gaskets from Atkins and Hoyle and sprang for "their" caulk stuff for the big hatch gasket. I see from the Jamestown Dist. website that if

And if you're replacing every port lens, number them as you take them off so you can put the new ones back in their original locations. Using the old ones as templates is the best way to get a good fit. Barbara Hickson Fellers "Flight Risk" '76 C&C 33 MkI Sent from the Mars Rover. On Oct 17
