Hello Gary-

The size of the chute for the F25 is the factor for using a snuffer. On my ARC22 [615 sqft - similar in size] Aquarius has been trying to develop a method that won't destroy the sail. Dragging that size chute will rub off the coating on the sail and create excessive wear that doesn't occur on the smaller chutes.

I bought a Roller furling spin for my F25c from Gordon at GMSails in Ormeau. It works well. He has made several of these for Fboats around the planet. Gordon also made his own carbon tri & sails and races competitively.You might contact him for advice as well as references regarding the use/characteristics of this sail. I put mine on a continious Fancor furler. You can literally keep the sail up and driving almost to the mark before furling. That translates into extra...

Also, you might try the FTA/Fboats site for further responses
