Default NEW Sails!!!

Nutsy,

A Question; You have a Self Furler on your Head Stay, Why are you
cutting a #1? Why aren't you just rolling it up?

It sounds like your "2nd Hand head sail" isn't going to be able to take
a partial reef? Is that the case? Will you be able to roll it to a 100%
if you can't cut it?

I guess I'm asking; If you furl it, will it lose its driving force and
just be a Heeling Producer?

I don't understand the mentality of cutting down a head sail on a Self
Furler?

Please explain?
