Mainfurl MLS

Furling system with locking mechanism

The Mainfurl in-boom furling system is advantageous in that the rotatably mounted mandrel may rotate freely when the coupling element is in its release state. Thus, with the coupling element in its release state the mainsail may be hoisted without potential complications caused by the furling line. The braking arrangement prevents the mainsail from unfurling when the coupling element is in its coupling state for example when the mainsail is reefed.
