Thank you Harken for making these ancient VHS tapes available on RU-vid!! Saved me tons of headache and money working on my old harken unit! Still working great 40 years later.
WHAT A GREAT VIDEO !!! I have Harken rolling furlers on my Hunter 320 for the jib and the asymmetrical spinnaker. No problem except a rare drum wrap when then the jib was deployed too rapidly. Thank you for emailing the link to this video.
I have a Harken II and she has the bottom plate of the spool assembly missing a piece of the substrate (Plastic?). Can I get a new one? I like the older Harkens (I, II, III).
Informative video, but I take issue with the drum position when the sail is completely unfurled. The hole in the top of the drum through which the furling line passes and is then knotted has moderately sharp edges and will quickly abrade the furling line and eventually sever it. A better method is to set the furling line so that there's at least one complete turn of the furling line around the drum when the sail is completely unfurled.
