That's a funny story about the hylas forestay- mainly because I was at the depature marina for a week or more before participating in the rally aboard our schooner, and didn't see or hear anything about any forestay coming down... Might be a bit of the ol operator game there....
Headsail furling reefing gears work , certainly when installed correctly, use them with faith.
I wonder if dux would hold up better to halyar wrap than stainless? Who can test that one for us?
Eager to set my own westsail up with this stuff- just gtta sell a few boats, first
