Claude,
I'm going to assume that the boat is in the water. Pull the 175 all the way 
 out. Note the routing of the line. Untie the knot at the bottom of the 
sail and  remove the line counting the remaining turns. A good digital picture 
or another  person to help you remember how it was previously attached is 
always helpful.  Replace the line in reverse of how you took it off. Voila! 
Make sure to keep the  175 cleated down when all the way out. A nice calm day 
is preferred for this  procedure.
Now, this all being said, I'm assuming you have the GBI furler.

Hello  Everyone;

The sheathing on the furling line of the 175 is chafed  through, and I need 
to replace it.  What is the procedure for doing  that.  I have checked the 
archives, but got no help.
Thanks.   

Claude
