Roller Furling Kit for Kayak Sails Description
This is the ultimate for easy operation of a Hobie Mirage sail kit. Start with the sail rolled around the mast. When you are ready... un-furl to expose the sail or leave a little rolled on the mast to test the wind! By partially unrolling the sail, you are “reefing” some of the sail for better control and stability. If you are ready for full power... roll it all out! Heading back to the beach? Roll the sail up tight on the mast and beach or dock the kayak with ease. The rolled sail will fit in current full-length sail bags. Hardware is easy to install and removal of the sail and control lines is simple for storage.
**Fits any Hobie Mirage sail kit (not for i-Series kayaks due to their stayed rig)

Works, sort of, difficult to install, inappropriate parts.
It works, sort of but not well, but that is about all that can be said. It is difficult to install, the screws provided are not long enough and using it requires patience and precision. Go on youtube for a homemade version. I also got a nasty cut from using mine, OUCH!
