Default Best headsail roller furling unit?

I've been looking on the Profurl website. Based
on the prices I see on the web, it looks like the
properly sized Profurl(C350) for my boat would be
about price equivalent with the Alado. I'm still
researching.

If you have a turnbuckle, you should order the "I" version with turnbuckle
cylinder - this allows the drum to be lower.

Otherwise, you would need the optional long link plates so that the
turnbuckle will be below the drum (Some suppliers may include them as
standard).

Check what length of extrusions are supplied as standard - you may need an
extra one.

Make sure you have enough turnbuckle adjustment so that you can install
rigging toggles top and bottom if they are not already there - probably need
about 2.75" for each.
