Nick What model CDI do you have and what $ are you asking for it?

Rik Google ads for CDI don't do justice to real life experience in any windy conditions with the CDI and if you like I can sell you one cheap Nick Nick and Pam On 27 June 2015 at 10:17, Rik Sandberg <sanderico1@gmail.com> wrote:
Nick,
Google is your friend. You might want to look up CDI furler as apparently you haven't seen one before.

The CDI furler is a sail bag on the forstay and not an effective furling system Nick M17

Hello All, I have a CDI furler on my M-15 and even though my shrouds are attached at the after chain plate holes I can't seem to get the furler taut.In fact there is a little forward rake in the mast at the present setting. Of course our 15's have no back stays which would probably solve the slackness problem.Any helpful advice? RTH.
