FAMILY="SANSSERIF">Stephen:<BR><BR>Thanks so much === I will get the movie
ASAP. I sailed from Boston to Africa and Back on a 36 foot loop back in
1978/79. We always took the main off to fly storm canvas in extreme weather,
primarily because any loose sail in a furled main in 60 knots wind might worm
its way loose and ruin your day. I do not have rolling furl equipment on
my boat for the same fear. One stuck piece of spring driven metal with
too much sail out in a real blow and you are toasted cheese (As Jack Aubrey
might say). In the sailing I do now, day sails in Lake Michigan with cocktails
off the city of Chicago at night, I will be less afraid to try some of these
"new fanged" equipment. The advice and patience here is wonderful.<BR><BR>FI I
am going to ship my boat to Torrenson Marine in Muskegon and have a real yard
install an 18 HP Yanmar and do some deck work. I will fit and try her in
Muskegon in May or June and sail her back to Chicago. Very excited. Thanks to
all for continued support.<BR><BR>Tom Swift<BR>#222</FONT>
