Hobie Furling Sail for My Revo/ProAngler

Hi Allen,

I saw the post moved up about an inch while spinning and dropped down at the end of the video, Maybe you can lower the point where the rope attach to the PVC pipe to minimize the upward movement.  Maybe it's not neccessary to do that, just thinking out loud

Sonny, I think if we moved the string attachment down a bit the line would drop below the lower end cap. It still unfurls but it take more effort wrapped around the mast but doable. We will play with it this weekend. I am bringing enough materials to make at least three set  ups .....and  will allow for a bit of experimentation McGuiver would be proud

I too am thinking of a furling system.
I saw awhile back that there were a few good examples on the Hobie Kayak Sailing Forums.
Thx for doing the prototyping, I hope to be copying someone.

Pretty cool stuff...your right Rudy rocked on his DIY vids.........

Off topic but did you do a post on your anchor system Allan???  I'm wanting to set my revo up with an anchor system for some dino hunting...

Does anyone have "plans" with dimensions and specific parts needed to make one of these?

Thanks,
