[C38] Seafurl grease

[Steve.Ribble at gmail.com]

Just talked to my rigger and I had confused his comment. Apparently he's  
worried about the bearings inside the furler and if they are  
damaged/removed by pulling the stay then we'll have to disassemble the  
furler sections (hence, the screw comment).

Between owning the boat for a few years and all the advice from everyone on  
so many different topics on this listserve I thought I knew most everything  
about the boat...but I guess there's always another thing to learn. And  
that's why I greatly appreciate this group; a few days ago I knew the  
furler deployed and retracted the genny...and with a simple question not  
even 24 hours later I now know how it works and I have plenty of time to  
make repairs before my first race of the season in 2 weeks. Again, thanks  
for that!

Hey, PS: Tittravate means "to tinker with something until it's right, or  
better"...it's certainly an appropriate name because I've been repairing,  
replacing, and re-rigging since early March and now this... I think I might  
change the name to 'Done and in Proper Working Order' and see if that  
helps!! :-)
