ROLLER FURLING, CDI MAST, BARE EXTRUSION, 3" X 4" X 28' ROLLER FURLING, CDI, LUFF ONLY
ROLLER FURLING, CDI
Our Price: $999.00
Now available again, CDI is under new ownership and back in production.
This is the complete roller furling system for all MacGregor models. You will also need the deck hardware to lead the control line to the cockpit and a headstay compatible with the furler. We can provide you with both. Your headstay must have a standard turnbuckle at the bottom and a swaged threaded stud on the bottom end of the wire, not a loop. The luff is not returnable.

The ball bearing upgrade does reduce friction when furling the sail, but also adds some maintenance, while the standard bearing is maintenance free.

Fits V24, V224, V25, M25, M26C, M26X. Does not have sail feed slot cut or any holes for hardware drilled. Must be shipped motor freight, call for quote, disregard quoted shipping on website. Masts are shipped in 2 pieces with a heavy duty splice / reinforcement at the spreaders. Mast packaging fee: $150

Select appropriate options if you'd like the mast drilled for hardware installation and/or notched for the sail feed slot.

We recommend buying a new mast foot plate with a new mast so we can drill the holes to match up correctly.
THIS LUFF FITS THE CDI UNIT ONLY. This is the plastic headfoil for the CDI, Cruising Design, roller furling units. This plastic luff is what the headsail rolls up onto, the headstay is inside. Has two groves, one on each side, for sail. Luff is not returnable.
In some cases the shipping charge may be higher than the estimate. We will contact you if this happens.

BOOM, COMPLETE, KEELBOATS
Our Price: $335.00

This boom fits all Venture and MacGregor models through 1987 except the V-24 and V-224 (these boats had an 11' long boom which is no longer available). We will cut to length for models with boom lengths under 10'. Must be shipped motor freight, expect high shipping charges and a $30 special packaging fee. The original size boom section is no longer available. We are using the same section as the mast, this will require that you also replace your boom end caps with the new part, boom end cap large.

Replacement plastic drum assembly for the CDI FF2 roller furling system. This does not come with the luff support pin, or the anchor pins/shackles that are pictured. All of those parts are available separately.

This is the newer winch style mast raising system for use on all MacGregor and Venture boats except the 26M. This system can be used if you don't have a mast raiser at all or if you want to update a block and tackle style system to the newer winch style.

Most boats will need some additional hardware, especially if you don't have any mast raiser at all now. Be sure to read the "Extended Information" section before you order! If the wrong parts are ordered from the drop-down options the customer will be responsible for return shipping charges and the shipping of the correct parts.

If you have an existing block and tackle style mast raiser and want to upgrade to the winch style, order our retrofit kit, part #3464-1V4


This system is very specific to the MacGregor Mast and MacGregor hardware and is not sold for or intended to be used on other brands of boats.

Attaches to existing your female shroud adjuster at stern chainplate, if your female adjuster is missing, you should order that also, part #3102-110.

This kit includes all the parts you will need to convert an existing block and tackle style mast raiser to the newer winch style. You will need a good mast raising pole with all of its standard hardware and your existing side support wire assemblies to make this kit work. If you do not have a good pole order the complete kit, part #3418-1M0 for the 26M or #3418-1V0 for all other MacGregor or Venture boats.

BOOM VANG KIT, ALL BUT 26M ROLLER FURLING, CDI, BALL BEARING UPGRADE ROLLER FURLING, CDI, HALYARD TOP FITTING
BOOM VANG KIT, ALL BUT 26M
Our Price: $159.00

This kit gives you all the blocks, line and hardware to install a Boom Vang on any Mac except the 26M (use kit 3301-1M0). Does not work with early boats equipped with the roller reefing boom when the sail is actually reefed. Most boats already have the holes drilled in the mast and boom for the attachment bolts. If yours does not, you will have to drill two 1/4" holes.

This is a replacement metal ball bearing for the FF2 furling unit. Although it's not a "night and day" difference between the standard bearing and the ball bearing, it is a nice upgrade and truly the only way to get maximum performance and ease of use out of the CDI flexible furler system.

If you're having trouble with rolling and unrolling your furling unit we suggest first looking at replacing the furler control line. Sometimes the line is too big (should be 3/16") or it's just old and that's why the furler is getting stuck. If your line is good but you're still wanting a system that rolls more easily, then the ball bearing upgrade is probably worth it.

For more detailed information on the replacement parts see the CDI FF2 Manual by following this link. This part is part "E" in the diagram.

ROLLER FURLING, CDI, NEW STYLE PLASTIC CUP SPREADER, FIXED BASE, RETROFIT KIT SINGLE LINE REEFING KIT
SINGLE LINE REEFING KIT
Our Price: $99.00

New style plastic replacement cup for the CDI FF2 roller furling system, the Stainless cup is no longer available (new picture coming soon). This is the cup only, the main plastic bearing is a separate part.

For more detailed information on the replacement parts see the CDI FF2 Manual by following this link. This part is CDI part #1807 or "F" in the diagram.

This is a great upgrade for any older boat with loose spreaders that can fold up against the mast. Greatly improves both the strength and stiffness of the rig, making it much easier to get good headstay tension. Improved headstay tension means improved upwind performance. Fits 3.5" X 4" teardrop style mast (1967 thru 2003). Most 26X models came with rigid spreaders standard, some early boats did not.

This kit modifies the boom so you can reef the sail from the cockpit. Your mainsail must have slides and jacklines, or slides and a mast gate cover to work properly. With just slides and no jacklines or mast gate cover, you will need to remove 1 or 2 slides from the mast to reef. Works great with your halyards led aft to the cockpit. An easy way to update your old roller boom to a more modern system.

WIND INDICATOR, SPAR-FLY SAIL TRACK CAR W/ CAM CLEAT STAY, FORESTAY, HANK, CUSTOM
WIND INDICATOR, SPAR-FLY
Our Price: $56.00

This little red wind vane sits at the top of your mast helping the skipper sail and look like a pro while sailing. This shows the direction the wind is coming from, helps you sail close to the wind and properly sheet your sails when off the wind.


This item was not a standard item on any MacGregor model but can be used on the Genoa tracks of many models. These are NOT intended to replace the standard genoa cars, but rather to be placed at the aft end of the track to allow the driver to easily cleat off the Genoa or Spinnaker sheets in lighter wind conditions that do not require the winches to be used. Spinnaker sheets can be run directly to these cars in light to medium wind.

These cars fit all MacGregors , Venture and Tattoo models that have standard 1” aluminum T-Track, some older model boats had smaller 7/8” stainless steel or aluminum track, these will not fit those tracks.


1/8" 1x19 Stainless Steel wire with a loop at each end. Different models and years used different lengths. You will need to measure your forestay from loop to loop (the inside or "load bearing" face of the loop) or, better yet, send in old headstay and turnbuckle for us to match it up exactly.

If you are ordering a new turnbuckle also (part #3107-000), then measure from the inside face of the loop at the top to the center of the hole where the turnbuckle pins to the boat at the bottom with the turnbuckle set about 1/3 of the way closed. If you have questions, please email or call for more info, you don't want to get a new forestay that doesn't fit!
