Should I convert my old 110 to furling or buy a new furling 110.

Can anyone suggest where to convert my 110?

I spent most of my money on boats and beer, the rest I just wasted.

Sail lofts have sales this time of year, old C25 sails are usually worth 100 bucks. Sell the sail, buy a new one hopefully net 5-6 hundred.

I think you should do neither. With your new furling 135%, you won't use the 110% - ever. List it on swap meet to lessen the cost of your new sail and furler. At least, don't do anything until you've had the chance to use the new sail/furler for a while. I stored mine in a locker for a season and then realized it would likely rot in there before I'd ever use it again so I sold it.
