[C38] Harken furler

[Don Strong]

Bruce: Discreet Charm (C38 #50 1980) had a harken furler when we 
purchased her in 2002. Great product.
Do make sure that the head sail luff is the proper length. If the luff 
is slightly too short, the furler can hang up at the head.
Solutions exist.

Also, while I was there I got happily distracted by wanting to look at the photos again, but when I clicked on the "Photos", "Racing", and "Log In" tabs I was redirected to log in to WordPress.  Am I doing something wrong?  Should we be able to log in to WordPress to see those tabs?  I wouldn't think so.  Please advise.

Do any of you happen to have the C-38 forestay sizes?  The Unit 2 requirements are as follows: The wire must be 5/16", 3/8", or 7/16" and the clevis pin must be 5/8" or 3/4".
