Safety - No Risk of Overriding
The webbing is guided evenly and smoothly onto the drum. This eliminates overrides as the webbing lays flat inside the drum.

Innovation
This webbing concept illustrates our commitment to innovation and design in the furling system manufacturing. All the kit elements have been carefully designed for easy and simple use featuring; new webbing to furling line swivel, adapted stanchion blocks, large diameter drum and torlon ball bearings.

Performance
Maximized luff thanks to the low profile drum and the Genoa tack and foot that lays close to the deck. The Flat Deck offers 20 cm of additional luff length compared to an equivalent classic drum style furler.

    Very high quality gear and easy DIY installation

    Posted by Alex on Oct 31st 2018

    It took 4 hours to install it without unmasting and/or need to climb up. I cannot see lot of plastic parts but for the top halyard deflector. Looks as robust as it gets. Very low profile I loose only 7 inches on the luff and I was able to shorten my sail just by moving down the head few inches. US and France support to answer questions has been prompt. No cuts needed to fit right size. Swaged terminal slips through all pieces nicely. Telescopic bottom section is a real "a... saver". Suggest to first attach link plates to toggle pin and correctly tension the forestay before lowering the drum and tighten the telescopic section to right lenght and screw the plates back into their drum slots as the last thing (Facnor manual suggests the other way around but then you cannot easily reach inside the drum to turn the turnbuckle).
