I guess the only other question is how do you arrange the sprit? The forestay is almost a foot back from the pointy end where there is a heavy aluminum casting and the fairleads to the bow cleats. I can't see a way to run a retractable sprit through all that mess. Or do you just drill a hole in tha

Luke, The possibility to safely furl from the cockpit and then go forward only to handle a thightly furled sail is a big plus indeed compared to the situations you described, that do happen with a snuffer. Bruno Lachance. Envoyé de mon iPad Le 9 août 2019 à 09:45, Luke Wolbrink mailto:luke.wo

Thanks for clarifying Bruno, we mostly do distance races like the Mac and some shorter stuff but seldom less than 15miles, I avoid bouy races other than wednesdays when it's not super stressful anyways. We end up loosing more time screwing up the hoist/douse and simplifying is a big deal. The admir

Hi Luke, If you're 33-2 is older than '86, you probably have the C&C extrusion and Klacko in Ontario should be able to help you with a solution. If ´86 or newer, the mast would be an Offshore spar. The furler is slower because it takes some time to furl the sail opposed to pull the sock down.

Thanks for the responses. The local phrf will give me a 6s credit if I ditch the pole, which is surprising. I'll look up the mast mfr, I just assumed they were out of business. Pete, why do you say the furler is slower? Does if affect boat speed or just the time to roll and unroll vs douse? Thank

Hi, i installed an asym kit on my 33-2few years ago: big running asym, a selden bowsprit, facnor furler and yes, I installed the crane/bail on the mast. If you choose to go with a furler, you will need that clearance for the top swivel. It gets crowded up there with the jib furled. My boat is a

Yes, I added an aluminum plate on the top of the mast to get the spin halyards out past the forestay. I also fly only Asyms. For the longer distance races I sail I wouldn’t go back to sym. Simple, fast and less crew needed. I don’t use a top down furler so can’t help you there. >From
