Roller Furling Genoa The Roller Furling Genoa is designed for use on any furling system. Its design incorporates all the lessons learned from long distance cruising and racing, and takes into account the quality standards and durability requirements of the cruising yachtsman. Innovation - Optimum Shape Maintenance The Roller Furling Genoa features a unique innovation that we call our 'Multi Track Foam'. On most foam luff headsail systems, the foam pad can be permanently distorted after it has been rolled up for any period of time. Our Multi Track Foam Luff System is made up of individual 1-inch foam strips and provides total furling flexibility without ever distorting the foam or sail shape. The Multi Track Foam Luff System offers another unique advantage. In order to give the correct shape to the sail, genoas are cut with more draft in the mid section. As the sail is rolled up, more cloth has to be taken out of this mid section than elsewhere on the sail. The elliptical shape of the Multi Track Foam pads is cut to exactly fit the draft profile of the Genoa, thereby maintaining correct sail shape The Multi Track Foam system is smooth in use and allows the sail to furl with a correct shape when the breeze comes up. more precisely than any other luff furling system. Optimum shape maintenance means you lose little in performance when you reef your sail.
