I have a boat that was converted by previous owner to Mainsail on sliders and manual slab .... basically a few bits of rope through the sail at various points and levels to lash it to the boom for reefing. No tack or outhaul fixing etc. to help.
The sail has a gap about 2 cms from the mast track - reducing the sail efficiency .....
Now I need to weigh up the pros of leaving it as is, or going back to normal boltrope system and also the boom roller, leaving the reef lines to square up the boom when rolled.
So from out there I need your comments and votes as to which way to go .... YES to stick with it, NO to remove the sliders.
Suggestions also would be most welcome ........
