11- FURLING TIPS 

 

 
 

 When you reef, check the Genoa car to ensure the correct tension on the leach and foot. 

 

 

 Keep the Genoa halyard tight when furling in and out. Do not tight excessively the 

halyard; stop tightening as soon as the folds in the sail have disappeared. 

 

 

 Before leaving your boat, make sure that the sail is tightly furled and that the jib sheets 

are wrapped around the furled sail two or three times, and the reefing line is secured. 

 

 

 When reefing in light airs, maintain some tension on the jib sheets to ensure the sail is 

properly rolled up d. 

  

 

 Slack the halyard at the harbour.  
  

 

 Regarding maintenance, please see page 6.  

  

 

In case of difficult rotation, check that no halyard (Spinnaker halyard for instance) is 

interfering.  

 
 

 DO NOT FORCE

 the reefing system. Check for reasons if the sail is difficult to furl and 

contact your agent.
