hi .
i dont have this boat as yet but what type of furler would i need...a structural stayfurler or not. and what model? checking out prices at the moment.

I suggest you join the TopHat Facebook group. They have a huge depth of knowledge & experience with these boats.
Cheers, Graeme
so i dont need a structural furler! but i do need one with a foil if i want to reef and its interesting that i cant find one website in australia that sell these furlers,,like a profurl c290,,, many sell the bottom drum and swivel on their own,, boatwarehouse,whitworths,,, is it that hard to find or do you have to use a rigger?
I've owned a Top Hat, and also installed one of these to a 27ft Albin Vega. Great bit of kit and easily retrofitted to to existing forestay whether or not you have recently replaced it.

I've used an Alado furler on both my yachts, and have even used the genoas half-furled while having wind to 30 knots.
They have twin grooves, so you can fly 2 sails if you want.
Price and customs duty is included in the competitive price. Unfortunately I don't see the price, without being prepared to buy.
Easy for a sailmaker to adapt a sail to the bolt-rope required.
