Re: Furling very difficult
If the upper swivel is binding because the
halyard
is twisting then your
halyard
may not be tight enough. You don't want halyard wrap at the masthead.

Re: Furling very difficult
Salty, Try keeping the sheet on a
winch
with a turn or two so you can use one hand to let that out as you crank in the
furling
line led to another
winch
. Should be easy to do singlehanded if both lines are around a winch
