We are trying to get a slip for our P19 for the
upcoming season, and I am starting to worry about
protecting our roller furling jib, which we would
leave up (I guess) in the elements. I know that we
should cover it with some sort of sunbrella sleeve,
but I have two questions.

1. Where do you get such a sleeve - does IM carry
them? West Marine?

2. How do you get the sleeve up and down the jib? If
I leave the regular jib halyard rigged to pull it up
and down, it interferes with the rotation of the
roller furler at the top of the mast.

What do y'all do? Thank you very much for your
terrific help, as always!
