Just replaced the furler line on Pegathy. 145% Genoa on an LF38 80' of 3/8
double braid. Works well, 10' tail when unfurled, figure 8 to hold the line on
the drum. A bit more than a half foot of stretch under load when reefed, I
figure. That's less than a half turn of the drum. I figure that if it's blowin'
that hard, the boats close to hull speed, and I ain't gonna worry about it.
