Frequently Asked Questions

what is a CDI Furler?

The CDI Flexible Furler is a furling system designed for the vast majority of sailors who are primarily cruisers or daysailers. This system is reliable, solidly built, and comes with an unbelievably comprehensive warranty.

A Dynamic solution for all sailboats

The CDI Flexible Furler is suitable for use on daysailers, offshore passage makers, monohulls, and multihulls. It is used by production boat builders and is great as a retrofit. The flexible luff extrusion makes it the best choice for trailerables. This makes it a versatile furling system that can be used on different types of boats.

Advantages of a furling system

Whether large or small, your cruising boat or daysailer should have a furling system. Going forward on any size boat is potentially wet and often dangerous, particularly if your crew is inexperienced. Changing sails as the wind comes up is not a lot of fun! The Flexible Furler can be used to both furl and reef your sail in any wind condition. This makes it a safer and more convenient option for sailors.

Reliability and cost

CDI has eliminated expensive features only hard-core racers demand, thereby increasing the system’s reliability while lowering the cost. This means that the Flexible Furler is a cost-effective option for sailors who do not want to spend a lot of time and money buying or maintaining their equipment. The system’s reliability is backed up by the fact that 100% of Flexible Furler owners surveyed by Practical Sailor would buy their Flexible Furler again if they had the choice.
