On my year 2000 Hunter 340 I have jammed the mainsail in the furling mast twice recently. :cry: The first time I broke an internal part in the mast and opps, the part cost $700.00 USD.
Then it got stuck this week while furling it in in 25 knot winds. Yes, I was heading into the wind. Can't get it out. Called the rigger to work his magic. So...has anyone changed out from having a roller furled in the mast mainsail to the old style of raising the sail up the mast and capturing the dropped mailsail in lazy jacks? Using in the boom furling won't work as I understand that the mast needs to be replaced.
