If you idiots have been told once, you've been told a hundred
times to
lose the roll-ups. They're failure-prone and expensive. They
result in a
lousy sail shape. They are heavy. They jam when you want to
roll them up
and they unroll at the worst times like in a good blow at the
docks.


I can never remember which way to press the furler switch Amel
put by the helm. The line never jams on the drum when there's no
line and no drum...(c;

It's why we have huge batteries to do our work for us....

The line doesn't jam on the drum if you rig it correctly either.
Willie is just nautically challenged.

By the way, what version of the Amel are you referring to?
