Furler Guts

taking the sail feeder off didn't do anything - just crusty red loctite, and nothing moves. I suppose that's good....

Extrusion pulled up as far as it will go. It hits the masthead junk here. The big round doohickey is the internal turnbuckle, I think, and the long skinny jobber that's normally inside the extrusion looks to be an extra long swage fitting on the end of the wire. I hope. Maybe.
