Better check how much it weighs. It looks like the halyard compression is
carried by the foil which must require a pretty heavy section.

I'm still shopping for jib roller reefing and came across Alado Nautica.
This is a bit different from all the others and cheaper. Anybody see any
serious drawbacks to this one? At first the idea of no bearings was
strange
but after some thought, I can't see any problem.
Thanks
