- I make my own continuous line furling unit... and test it with a code zero on a coastal trip.. I based the design around the bits and pieces I found lying around the house, but please do leave a comment if you need any specific details.
Here's a link to the (basic) drawings in pdf ....
sv-nimbus.com/f...
and a 3d PDF showing the assembled furler...

to view the 3d pdf, you'll need to download and view the PDF using a newish version of adobe acrobat reader
I've reloaded this file with better sound quality... and there shouldn't be any ads!

very nice build, congrats! I am thinking of setting up a furling system for the jib in my 20 footer, this is good inspiration
Thanks for another industrious video. I will make one for my boat.
Terrific DIY. Well done. Can you reef it? My friend has a genoa as a headsail in her 36' boat, continuous furler. It's either furled or all the way out. No reefing option. (I find this utterly bizarre.) I can see where this isn't an issue for you as you have a second headsail behind the Code Zero. That would be the one to reef.
One idea I had, based on a workaround for my Hydrovane, is if you can cross the lines as they come off the drum, the line never jumps the groove (there's no outer housing on the Hydrovane drum -- the adjusting line is to be held in place by a bungee on a block and a continuous line. By crossing the lines before they go through the two 'fairleads' it never jumps out of the track, I don't need the block and bungee. Crossing the lines doesn't increase friction by the line rubbing against itself. It gains friction by a 270 degree +/- contact with the drum, versus 180 degrees +/- of the usual set up.
I'm going to try this on her continuous furler. Or add a single 'furling' line that wraps around above the drum. Instead of the usual furling line wrapping as the jib comes out - this will unwrap. Then when she wants to reef, lock that line down on a cleat.
Hi, thanks for your thoughts regarding the contact angle. I don't reef the code zero, just furl it. The drum might manage this, but the rolled sail shape wouldn't be great. Typically if the wind picks up the Genoa then takes over. For dead downwind, I sometimes hank an old jib to the inner forestay (with whisker pole) for balance, and drop the mainsail.
You can modify an old clamp-on desk lamp to make an articulated camera boom, enabling you to use both hands in your video.
Great video, many thanks! I also own a halcyon 27 and find these really useful.
There seem to be quite a few of us H27 people here!
Clever idea, thanks for sharing.
Really great job!
Great video this is just what I am thinking of doing, I am based just down the coast at NQ, would love to pop up and take a look/have a chat. Very well made , Harry
Hi there, yes no problem just give me a shout if you've any questions, I've only managed to get over to Nimbus a couple of time so far this year, but hoping to do some winter sailing.
Marvellous..I knew there should be an option to diy ..blody cant be hard to make a drum(said to myself).
For how big boat is that? And good work!!
Good work
Is it possible to get a parts list? We are trying to build 4 of these for a sail roof. We need to roll them up during inclement weather. Thank you!
Hi Thanks for the comment, there is a web link to my part drawings in the description which might help, but I designed the unit around an old swivel I had, which might not suit your application so well. Good luck with your sail roof.
Hey man, are you still around/sailing nimbus? I've also got a Halcyon 27 and would love to pick your brain if you wouldn't mind!?
Hi, Yes I'm still around... but no sailing since March, when Wales imposed it's national 5 mile travel ban, and closed the Marina. Not sure my brain can handle much picking.. but I'll do my best!
Is it now a cutter rig?
I only extend the bowsprit and use the code zero in light winds so never really use the genoa at the same time, so not really a cutter. Thanks for the comment..
yes ,, but what is at the top to facilitate the turning / twisting of the hallyard , would the rope alone not be damaged by the twisting ?? ty
You're right there is a smaller swivel (salvaged from another broken roller reefer) above the torsion rope so it can rotate freely.

Ahoy! Do you have a SABB engine? If so, any chance of a video explaining it? Thank you.
Hi... Well Nimbus has an old Yanmar SB12 fitted so I can't help directly, but.... nine years ago, when i was searching to find a Halcyon, I went for a look at Corycia when she was in Cemaes on Anglesey. She was already really nicely fitted out, and the owner was a great bloke who gave me a full run down of the tricks to the Sabb engine, such as where to add a couple of drops of oil to the cylinder to help cold start compression etc. Luckily he's also on TH-cam (and has some great sailing videos) so I suggest you give him a shout (MJCooke2 th-cam.com/channels/Z9i3yym-Vul_bD9RQxKmJw.html ) I'm sure he'll be happy to hear news of one of his old boats and is extremely knowledgeable. Can't wait to see some more of your adventures! Where is Corycia now?
@@SVNimbusThank you for your reply. What a small world! I bought Corycia a few months ago. She had been abandoned and neglected a little but it was obvious that her past owners had taken good care of her! Thanks for the link to her previous owner. Soon she will be shipshape! She is in Conwy, Wales and I have entered her for the Jester Azores challenge 2020 in the aid of the Turn To Starboard charity.
If you still have Nimbus...Happy Sailing!
"Furled Sausage" LOL
why you have the two wooden planks on port and starboard on the railing?
Hi, they are called fender boards, and protect the hull when moored alongside corrugated harbour walls or concrete piles, which would slip past individual fenders. They hang outboard of the fenders, ie between the fenders and wall.
The ones on Nimbus are actually made from PVC decking, so are lightweight. I also use them as a gangplank for the dog, as a workbench in the cockpit, and are useful for attaching jerrycans on deck.
@@SVNimbus tnx for the info
Dolphins at 17:16 🐬
Links for drawings that you had posted are not working.
Thanks... I swapped web hosts and forgot to migrate these files... Links should work now (you'll need to use acrobat reader to view the 3D pdf)
@@SVNimbus Thank you
This not homemade,promade😂,thanks
Not to be rude but you should have put this under dolphins and NOT anything to do with SAILS
