Thank you Brion, appreciate your time. And you're correct about the foil and luff leaving the mast cavity when it's blowing and the hydraulic is eased. I'm in the process of re-doing the spaghetti mess of crappy lines and what not that held the wire main halyard attached to the furling drum. Am going to install 2 turnbuckles at the 2 welded eyes on top of the drum with a pair of Amsteel eye-thimballed tethers. Leaves me with 4 inches plus of adjustment.
I'll research the Canadian mfg. and see what I can find.......
