It was better after I rolled in some of the main (effectively reefing).
But
honestly, this much difficulty handling wind in a boat this size? Awful
performance. Also, the roller furling main was a nightmare.

dude, *that* is bull****. I don't much care for Hunter boat, but
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO boat built in the last 25 years has
had
roller reefing on the mainsail. In fact, I doubt *any* Hunter EVER had
roller
reefing.

knock it frick off.

Here's the actual boat I chartered:

not to mention miserable sail shape fully extended, or partially extended. but
when they work, the mast looks so neat and tidy while at anchor.

so, you are saying *you* want to go offshore in a flimsy, ill-handling boat and
you don't have a clew what the difference is between an in mast furler and a
