I'm thinking about installing Roller Furling on my Typhoon. Would appreciate any ideas or comments on ideal jib size for Typhoon with Roller Furling. Thanks, Mark

Most sailmakers will recomend a max of using a 135 for roller furling. My experience has been that they are correct and going bigger leads to jams, and difficulty furling it all.
