Default Inexpensive sails - Ole Thom.

RB,

I'm sure you screwed yourself once again.
A J24 racing in class with full crew (or without) isn't going to be
using a furler. Bob, A flying sail change cannot be made with a furler
and Class Racers do have to be able to change out head sail as
conditions warrant.

They do use twin head tracks but a furler has the upper assembly that
prohibits the changing a sail while the other sail is up.

Changing head sails in class racing doesn't make since to be bald headed
for a head sail change.

You're going to have to modify your statement about a racing J24.

Sorry, Nutsy. You had your mouth going without the brain in gear.

Ole Thom
