CDI Furlers
If you think you've got problems with 'squirrelly' furler foil.. Try dealing
with -22 (3/8"dia) rod rigging after it's been in a 6 ft dia coil.. The rigging loft has special machine just to straighten it out, but then how to transport it to the boat once the fittings are installed and the ends are headed. Gotta coil it back up again.. The worst problem is with the slight bend at the ends. You need to keep considerable over tension on the rigging for months to get it to straighten out.. Vary hard on attachment fittins and mast step. I'm still not satisfied with the sight curve at the ends. Hopefully they it will straighten under load cycling.. Steve s/v Good Intentions |
