Installing Harken MKIV Unit 0 Roller Furling - Triton Osprey Refit Part 21 

That was an excellent tutorial. I had one installed for my Santana 2023 many years ago. It is a great furler and has held up wonderfully for over 20 years. In hindsight, the assembly was actually something I could have done myself. Thanks, this is a great reference.

Nice video, I have installed many furlers over the last forty +/- years. I assemble all of the furlers with wire from the bottom up and install the Staloc marine eye at the top, this also gives you a slightly longer hoist. This way you don't have to figure out the exact length of the top cut section first. I also install a swaged stud on the bottom. I'm sure you install the Staloc on the bottom so the water coming down the inside of the foils doesn't migrate into the swaged stud, I understand that. This way has worked for me for years. When I preassembly my Staloc's I coat the threads with tef-gel drop a little on the top of the former as well. Then I screw the Staloc together a couple of times to work the tel-gel into the threads. The reason I put a little bit on the former is helps the wire to form easily during assembly. Another thing I noticed: When I supply new halyard for the newly assembled furlers, I don't supply snap shackles on the halyard, I just splice a soft eye on the halyard and then it secures into the supplied shackle on the furler. Having two shackles is redundant in my opinion. Great RU-vid videos, I always have loved the Triton's and all of Carl Alberg's designs. Keep up the great detains on your rebuild projects.

Excellent video, with great explanations of not only how it should by done but why you do things a certain way. Learned a lot, thanks.

Well done i think anyone can tackle this insultion after your demo you make it look so simple

Great video. I have the the Harken Furler system on my Ranger. I also have the Harken Reflex too down Furler installed with a Selden bow sprit. Both furlers are great!

I just started building 61 yatches, I'm learning the plumbing, electrical, and mechanical. hope I learn from you too.

Very nice video. Thank you. Lots of good information presented that will be useful when I do a similar job on my boat this spring.

Great help! A ton of important information you shared. Many, many thanks sir! 👍

Nicely done tutorial!

Outstanding video, this answered many questions. Thank you.

Excellent instructional, thanks for posting this!

Thank you for this, very well done

Thank you, that was very clear and helpful.

Nice, instructive video. I have criticism, the spring-loaded snap shackle at the halyard end. I would change that out for a shackle, with all of them seized with annealed ss wire. Best, Vernon in Vancouver

great use of a tofu box. nice work, thank you for sharing your experience. When you bought Harken, did you consider Schaffer Snap Furl, or Hood furl systems?

Watching this makes my head spin. Glad I ditched my furling for hank on.

one question - Harken indicates that the cross pin should be installed 90 degrees to the lower clevis pin. In the video it looks like you have it parallel. Did you change this or was it okay to install as shown? Excellent video. Was a great reference for my install on a Contessa 26.

Do the long link plates also require the special toogle and the cross pin?

Amazing how they can get away using flat head screws on a product like this. If there ever was an environment for torx, it's marine gear.

Nice! Come do mine! :-)
