I am completely happy with the strong track and have no regrets. It

Amen. I'm really ****ed at the guy who worked on our sail, but that's an

If we need a quick lowering, pop the clutch and it's down in literally a

It's really almost as if the sail isn't physically attached to the
mast. It just drops like it is in free fall.
