TECH TIP! ROLLER FURLING JIBS: Just roll the jib up when you come into the beach or de-power if it gets too windy. Want to fly a spinnaker? The furling systems work great for easy spinnaker flying. A roller furling jib system can increase the life of your jib by avoiding flogging the jib material while on the beach or between races. Allows you to store the boat without lowering the jib (jib “snorkle” cover suggested). Kits available for the Hobie 20, 17, 16, 14.
