Profurl, Leisure Furl, Selden Furling
There are several products available now that do mainsail furling. The best is probably Leisure Furl, an in-boom furler made by a company in New Zealand. It got the best review in "Practical Sailor," anyway. Profurl also sells an in-boom furler. Selden sells an aftermarket behind-the-mast furler, similar to the factory in-mast systems now sold on new Hunters.Leisure Furl booms were originally designed for fairly large yachts. This year they released a product for boats like the 336 which they call "Leisure Furl Coastal." It's supposed to retail for about $4000, not counting the new mainsail that you really ought to get, or the electric winch that the guys at the local rigging shop tell me I'll need to get the main up.I have priced ProFurl systems at well over $8000 (again, not counting a new sail or other accessories). The makers of these in-boom systems claims that you can use your existing sail, but I don't buy it. It would still require substantial modification to the sail (adding a luff boltrope, for example). I've thought long and hard about installing one of these systems. For now, I'll concentrate on using my single-line reefing effectively. I can think of a lot better things to do with 10,000 bucks.Paulsv Escape Artist
