[Rhodes22-list] Furler issue

When I tried to bring in the Genoa, I found the line jammed in the drum of 
the CDI Furler.  Pulling on the line from the cockpit would not free it.  I 
had to go up on the bow and pull it at the drum.

The only reason for the jam I can think of is when we let the Genoa out we 
let it out too fast, allowing the line to have some slack in the drum.  Has 
anyone else had this problem and what should I look for to prevent the 
re-occurrence?
