My Hunter 30T has Hood continuous line furler. Would like to replace it with a drum furler. Any recommendations?

I have had a Harken MK1 Unit 0 on my 1991 30T for over 20 years. No problems whatsoever. Drum is located below deck in the forestay hole with blocks to direct the furling line through the deck and back to the cockpit along the port stanchions. The boat is winterized now (mast unstepped and boat covered) but I found an old picture of the boat showing the furling system in place. Hope this helps, Fred.

My '91 30T has a Schaefer 2100. Drum is above deck. Not sure why P.O. did not have drum installed below deck, but it works great. Just rebuilt it last summer when I replaced the forestry and standing rigging.
