[Alberg30] Roller furling

[John Birch]

I second Mike's opinion on Schaefer Furlers - good looking and robust - the furlers that is ; )
Had one for 5 years - no problems.

  We've been real happy with our Schaefer 1100 roller furling. We find that we sail more because it's so much easier. I chose the Schaefer over the Harken because of problems I was hearing from owners of the Harken system when it was under a lot of tension. Tom Maroldy has a group purchase going on another brand, you'll need to speak to him about that.

    I have just had my Alberg 30 hauled to have a bottom job and do other work 
    while she is out of the water.  Upon pulling her out, someone made the 
    comment that the prop doesn't look like it's the right one for this boat.   
    With my limited expertise, what I can determine is that it is a two-blade 
    prop.  Does anyone know if this is appropriate for my boat?  I would 
    appreciate any assistance you could offer about specs for this.  My engine is 
    an Atomic 4 (if that helps). 

    Also, the piece of chrome that would go across the stern is damaged and needs 
    to be replaced.  I have the old bent piece.  Any suggestions on having a new 
    piece made for this? 

    Also, would you recommend installing roller furling?  If so, what type/brand ? 

    Thanks,  Lorelei
