FACNOR HEADSAIL FURLERS
Why did I choose a Facnor headsail furler?
Facnor has been designing and manufacturing furling and reefing systems for 40 years.
The Facnor headsail furler is in my opinion the quickest and easiest to install – no cutting of the track/foil is needed. The patented telescopic section adjusts to the desired length.
Facnor furlers are durable and reliable with sealed bearings and a hard anodized aluminum drum and swivel.
Facnor makes sailing safer keeping the crew in the cockpit.
