OIC,.. Free standing (NO STAYS!) carbon fiber masts with luff traveler cars on a track, for easy up/down. :bomb:

Mahalo for that, John. It's being worked on and I appear not to be effected by this. Did they ever mention what the recall issue was?

Thanks guys. It's not just an email, it's a confirmed online order that went missing, and slow or no responses to inquiries about that. In "theory",...

Good close up photos. Thanks. That inline block is slick. There's a short chainplate above the 5.5 swivel. Anyone know if it's available separate...

I think I lost couple inches changing to the marine eye system. It may have fewer threads on it than the original bracket and it required I use a sli...

Just to be clear, do they shorten both sides of the pigtail? The forestay and halyard cables, equally? I did the whole replacement, bridals and all...

Adding to the confusion, the stock pigtail looks exactly like the kit version, in their pictures. 😕

I guess it makes sense if you had a pigtail there and Murrays gives you a 5" shorter, reswaged one. I ordered a new P18 forestay with the furling kit...

Oh- and the head of that flush pin is slotted for a small flathead. And it strips easily. We now return you to Johns original P18-2 thread,.. :lol...

I think Loctite 243 Blue is usually recommended. (Medium strength seize). In the red tube, of course 🙄

The Harken furler (top) requires a marine eye end on your forestay or turnbuckle. Do you have a turnbuckle now? Murrays can sell you a new forestay...

Yes, wireable pins. The failed shackle was tool tightened and taped, not wired. The only one that wasn’t. Regarding the furler’s pigtail, picture ...

Fer sure. It comes pre-assembled by Murrays, and apparently they didn’t use any. In fact, it’s a low profile pin and you wouldn’t even think to ch...

Bill. No Rebate mentioned at the WM site. Still, a good unit and deal. You have a different link to share?
