This isn't a thread that in-mast furling is terrible and you shouldn't use it. I'm just trying to understand the advantages (if any) of electric in-mast furling when I'll have electric winches.
Thanks!

I guess the question is if you have use for an electric
winch beyond furling your main. An electric main
furler is only good for that purpose where an electric
winch could be used for many functions if you have the need. Mainsheet possibly? Getting you
dinghy on your foredeck for passages?
That's the biggest difference I can think of.
