Francois For cruising purposes you may want to take a look at Doyle's UPS or similar product. It's essentially a smaller chute on a simple continuous line furling drum. The drum attaches to any convenient fitting with a snap shackle. By far it is the easiest system for a 2 person crew to manage.
I've used both the tacker and various socks over the years. While they work reasonably well the furling system is just in another league in terms of convenience. Just another option.
