Hi all, our 30-2 is due to splash in a week, and this is the second full
season for us owning it, and it's our first boat, so I'm full of questions.
Originally, a rigger helping us move our boat mentioned he thought the
rigging was too loose and could use a few turns to tighten it up, so we

remove the SS feeder, lower the swivel, and reinstall the feeder to allow me to
feed the luff tape into the groove. No problem at the dock but difficult on a

I have small Wichard swivel snap shackles on my Harken furler. If you are
installing them to facilitate sail changes, then I'd go with swivel snap
shackles. Non-swivel snap shackles wouldn't be much of an upgrade to
regular shackles.
Just my two cents.

The threads should fit the same hole as the shaft. They typically cut the
threads into whatever size bar stock is being used. It would take special
engineering and machining otherwise. I'm not saying it doesn't happen,
just not likely.

Thinking more about this, I dredged from memory a reason why the Selden and
Lewmar probably won’t work, but not because of the lack of a swivel. The hole
in the furler is 1/4” and they list the pin as 6mm which is slightly smaller.
However, I think the issues is that they don’t count the
Those look like they'll work fine. If you're not using a swivel shackle
the only thing that you have to pay attention to is the potential for
twisting of the sail foot. That's never been a problem for me since I'm
not racing. I can take the time to raise the sail and then attach the tack

You got me thinking. I prefer the Selden product if you go this route.
Superior engineering.
I like the security of shackles, though I always dread losing one of the pins.
I keep the pins secured with a stout bit of twine. I'd have to tape the snap
shackles to ensure they don't open at

Aries is due to splash on Monday and spring projects are mostly done. One
thing I have not yet done is replace the standard shackles on the Harken furler
top and bottom units with snap shackles to make head and tack attachment during
sail change easier. I have been looking at shackles to
