Motorized headsail furlers
I am interested in your experience with any of these electric headsail furlers and your recommendations. In particular, I'm interested in reliability and lifetime.

4. Facnor EC
5. Furlex 204E/304E

Re: Motorized headsail furlers
Thanks for this information. I don't know anything of Reckmann furlers, but I will look more into them.
