In-Boom Furling

Anyone have experience with in-boom furling? My local Catalina dealer says it's worth about 1/2 knot due to better sail shape and the sail maintains it shape longer. Is it worth the extra cost?

Live Aboard

I am a career Coast Guard officer planning to retire aboard a 350 in San Diego. Any suggestions? Just me, no cats or dogs.

In-Boom Furling

Anyone have experience with the LiesureFurl system offered for the 350? I've hear sail shape is better (1/2 knot?) and the sail will be more durable. Is it worth the added expense?

VacuFlush

Has anyone installed a VacuFlush head system on a 350? I have one now on a SeaRay and like it a lot. Has anyone had experience with both the Wilcox and VacuFlush? If so, which do you prefer. I will be ordering a new 350 and figure the time to do a conversion is prior to commissioning.
