I puty Spinlock rope clutches for our jib furling line and topping
lift. Page 832 West Marine 2000 catalog. I like them a lot. They
allow me to pull the furling line without releasing the clutch. They
can also be locked from an angle straight away. I think they work
great.
A friend of mine asked me what would be a good choice for a jib
furling system for his Hunter 23. Any ideas?
Thanks

My Boat currently has the furling line coming off the tube, down to
the deck, and across the cabin to a cam cleat on the cabin top just
over the bulkhead grab rail on the port side.
How do others, especially you Michael (my Harken brother) route their
furling lines from the drum to the cockpit.
Any opinions regarding Harkens stanchion mount system? Seems smart
and out of the way. They recommend a horn cleat though, rather than
cam.
Thanks.
