In french we say "faire d'une pierre deux coups" which translates to "getting

Off topic, but I hate the phrase “killing two birds with one stone”. Who wants
to kill birds with stones, let alone two at once? Horrible thought. We can
have a contest to come up with alternatives. Mine is: “kill two mosquitos

Hi, I installed my restrainer same time I installed my Harken Mark IV furler,
according to documentation I needed one and it was my feeling as well ( looking
at the angle I had on my 27 ).This is what Haren had to say about it :
To be used if angle between halyard and headstay is less than 7°.
I do not have a halyard restrainer but I do need one. It is in my chart table
waiting to be put on. Having said that I generally do not use my roller furler
as I primarily race the my boat.
FYI, Harken recommends the following to prevent halyard wrap:

Hi Divid,
You've had the boat a while and the restrainer was probably suggested by the
sailmaker and the sails cut to reflect that, so removing it may cause new
problems.
Is the halyard chafe new? When did it start? I would look for something that
has changed recently. Has the restrainer be
