Stus-List Roller furling choices advice?

Ls and Gs

I'm sure there is loads of experience on roller furlers out there...can you
share some of it? I have a 1981 C 34 with a track on the forestay.

I am considering replacing this with a roller furler  I'd like to be able
to install myself, and I'd like to keep the existing forestay as it's rod
and I'd rather not have to disturb it by shortening it as some of the
systems require. I'd also like not to have to change it to wire (at least
one furler manufacturer claims their system is not compatible with rod
rigging).

Profurl seems a possibility, Harken would need to shorten the stay.

Any comments would be appreciated!

Best regards

Hello experts,

I wonder if you can help me with any suggestions. I have a C with a 3GM30 
F. This motor runs well and smoothly, water circulates, no smoke. Recently it 
has been taking more and more revolutions to get it started. When it is turning 
over there does not appear to be anything going on, but when it starts its 
immediately smooth and normal (no coughing and spluttering).

This leads me to think that there must be a leak in the fuel system which is 
allowing the fuel to drain back out of the injectors. The fact that it seems to 
start with all 3 cylinders suggests that the leak is before the injector pump.

I cannot see any fuel leaking out at the supply pump or filter, so I'm 
wondering if anyone can suggest where I should start looking? Or what might 
cause this and not show fuel leaking or spraying out? I'd like to introduce 
some method into my troubleshooting!

Thanks and regards

Re: Stus-List IPad Question...

Are you looking at a GPS to plug in to your iPad or a Bluetooth GPS?
Bluetooth will give you the signal through most of the boat and it's not
tied to Apple technology. Eg Garmin Glo.

Cheers

Mike

OK...so I have this IPad I never use.  I'm thinking good for chartplotting
software for the 2X (maybe) a year that I need a chartplotter.

Needs a GPS.   I shop and see "Bad Elf"s" for $150+.  Huh?  I bought a GPS
dongle for my laptop for $20.  Is this more of Apples proprietary product
BS?

(sorry Apple users...I am not a big fan of Apple)

Are there other solutions this non-tech, non-Apple guy could use?

Thank in advance!
