Changing the battens orientation is easy and cheap at any sail repair service. And you don't notice any difference, at least on my N5.5. I did it without adding a furling system, just to be able to roll the jib manually around the forestay, everytime i leave the cat on the beach for short term or occasionally overnight. Hoisting a sock to protect the jib, if you love it enough, is slightly easier than taking it off every time.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Andinista on Oct 09, 2020 - 09:37 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
