Anyone have a roller furling jib? If so, did it replace forestay?

Thanks

Here's Cyane, she sails great at 42 years old. My wife wanted a pony to pull around the boats but all I could afford was a Troy Bilt Pony. And I'll give a shout out to World's Best Neighbors, they let us use their ramp and would be sad if we launched anywhere else on the bay :D

Gorgeous riding mower!

Oh, and the boat behind it looks pretty spiffy too ... :twisted:

Good looking boat. I think I've seen the stern of your boat on the Sunfish forum.
