PRELIMINARY CAUTIONS
The PROFURL in-boom mainsail reefing system is not designed to be installed on
wooden masts, or aluminium masts with track added with screws, rivets, glue or any
similar assembly. Fitting on a carbon mast is not recommended an requires special
skills. Please contact us.
Please check that there is no sign of severe corrosion on the mast which would
compromise the strength of the assembly.
The person in charge with fitting will be fully responsible for installation and adaptation
on board according to the specifications shown in this manual.
