Judy:
Potterer's should use caution with wire luff sails...
Sails with wire luffs can only be furled in one direction. If you make
mistake of setting up furler to furl against wire wrap you will unfurl wire
wrap and wrinkle the luff of your sail...

<< Sometimes you see a jib that's been "converted" for use on an older style
roller furler. There is a thin wire cable that runs inside the tape on the
luff, and there are loops at each end. The loops go around the metal
grommets (holes punched in sail with metal trim) at the head and tack
(bottom of the jib). >>
