hullo there, my boom roller reefing on my vega has given up the ghost
and is permanently jammed. must be a lubrication problem.
although it goes against received wisdom, i much prefer roller reefing
and would like to go on using it.
i do not seem to be able to detach the boom head from the actual boom,
although i undid some 5 screws and gan see a cog inside the head.
an outside detachable crank makes the mechanism go around, but not
anymore.
is there anybody who has any experience with this problem.
tks in advance for any advice
