Stan,

Can the new IMF outhaul be fitted to my 1991 R22?

I think we only put on one for an owner and that it came with its own furler
(which I did not like).

If these sails come with a "bolt rope" then it could be put on our new
system, when the standard genoa is down - but I thought the advanced sailors
who use these sails, do so with both the standard genoa _and_ the
asymmetrical flying at the same time?  The system's perfect use is for using
a 130 genoa with its full luff able to be employed instead of the 175 furled
so the luff length gets lost when going to the smaller genoa in heavier
winds.

The combination new IMF outhaul and new Traveler system and full luff
130 genoa sheeted to the third set of leads (ones on the cabin top) move the
Rhodes into a star pointing category.
