Gennaker / Assymetric Sail Handling

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Interested in anyone's experience with above. I have an assymetric and am looking at a furler for free flying sails e.g. Facnor, Gennaker vs. sock etc. 

I have heard that the assymetric can be damaged on a roller and doesn't work quite so well. The truth is it is bigger than the manufacturers of the furlers recommend.
