Hello All,
Does anyone have info or experience related to in-mast roller furling main on C310. I have one and for first 5 or so years it worked great. Last 4 years it has gotten hard to deploy and hard to furl. Did get a new main and that helped some. But still have some issues.
Main question is cleaning/service/lube/whatever of the bearings in the system. I flush the bottom bearings with hose water and then occasionally spray some Sail-Kote (dry lubricant spray) in the bottom bearing the best I can. But is there a top bearing up at the top of the mast? Any advice on anything that should or can be done up there?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Jim
