Roller Furling Mainsail

Post by technicalman »

Has anyone converted their 26S mainsail to roller furling. I saw the video of the 26M and got the case of the what ifs...

I know that people have converted the 26D to the rotating 26M mast--the factory did it for one after taking a new mould of its hull. I doubt anyone has added roller furling, but with the new mast there's no reason it wouldn't work. Bob Wilkie is attempting it.
