Harken Carbo Foil








Doesn't appear hard to install. Now I need to get my jib converted. I got one quote of $145 to do so.

Awesome, how do you intend to keep the sail on the deck when you douse? I put netting on my Merit when I used a foil. My sail would drop like a rock.

Normally I have someone on board and don't single hand. Even still, I head to wind with the sheet pulled tight, and it basically falls right on the deck without a problem. A bungee across both cleats keeps it there.
