Rick, You are correct. The holes are not standard. They were apparently drilled in place. As such each one has minute differences in placement. That's why the templates are so important. I will say that despite the appearance of the wood rails the SS ones are so much stronger and easier to

I used Whitewater for SS handrails on a J30. Turned out great. Just have to be VERY careful about measuring and sending them old ones. Your old rails may be both curved and crowned. They may "unflex" a bit once you remove them. Like Josh says, templates for the curve AND the crown will help.

I find my Furlex furler gets hard to wind the sail in when I have the jib halyard fully tight. If I ease the Halyard a couple of inches, it turns much easier. It is one more step when dousing the sail, but my halyard leads aft to the cockpit so it isn't a huge issue. I also suspect the furler
