I am ordering a Beneteau 311 and am debating whether to go for the in mast furling. It seems appealing from a convenience standpoint but I am concerned that I may pay too high a price in terms of loss of performance. The sail area is 60 sq. ft. less with in boom furling. The std sail is a full batten system. Would appreciate input - particularily from those currently using furling mains.
