I am about to put up my mast for the 1st time this coming Monday. I have 3 halyards main, jib, and spin;At 1st I was thinking that i would NOT use a roller furler on the jib to keep things simple. But am now having 2nd thoughts about it. The main thing I don't like is that the sail stays on the boat at all times because it becomes the forestay. Any one have any good input?
After the mast is up all that is left is get the sails! might make it this year!
