I am preparing to build a Sail slug gate for my old V21 in the spring. Those of you that have this or similar models already know it had a pretty wide flare for the bolt rope opening. This often made reefing difficult by adding the need to remove the slug stopper or, in my case a bungee cord, when preparing to reef, and required climbing out of the cockpit to begin the reefing procedure.
While I can do this project with the material on hand, I was wondering if anyone had simply hammered the flare back in leaving an opening on the bottom just large enough for the slugs to be inserted. Is this even possible(I have some body working tools that could possibly be used on this project)? :stirthepot:
