Z Furler

[Dan D]

I have a 1989 Hunter 28 which demasted 2 seasons ago. I'm beginning to work with US Spars for a new mast and I will need a furler too. They have one called a Z Furler which is probably made by the French Co that built he original mast. Anyone have any thoughts about this furler- It seems very inexpensive compared to Furlex, Harken etc

Cheaper is usually not better. Make sure that it will allow you to make sail changes and is capable of taking a reef. Many of the 'price' unit can do neither.
