[Rhodes22-list] Jib Furler

[Bob Keller]

John,

See attached my GB furler.  The hole for the furling line is actually in the center and the drum has to be dissassembled with the furling line going into the center and actually inside the tube where it is knotted so it will not pull out.  Then the line just wraps around.  The whole in the actual black drum itself is for securing the furler to the mast while trailering.  Not sure if I was clear but the hole is actually on the furling tube.

BK
