I have a Southerley 105 which has a solid rod kicker and no topping lift. I have a roller furling main, and am fitting a new Easyreef system. The solid rod is virually unadjustable due to being on a short track, but having no pulley arrangement! I want to upgrade this to a new system, and for simplicity have been looking at the gas-filled kicker struts, etc.
Does anyone know whether the cheaper GRP boomstruts are okay, or should I spend the extra £200-300 and buy the proper gas-filled one, bearing in mind that it is a roller main, and the strut must hold the boom up when in harbour?
Thanks
