Out-Haul Furler Service/Maintenance and fixing Grease Nipples/Zerk Fittings to In-Mast Furler System

In an in-mast furling system, the mainsails wraps around a tube inside a hollow mast. It is unfurled by an outhaul furler and furled back in with an in-haul/in-mast furler. It's easy to reef from the cockpit while underway and there's no need to flake or cover the mainsail when done sailing, which makes furling easy when short-handed. The downside is, if the sail is not handled properly while furling and unfurling, it can bunch up and jam inside the mast. There are many moving parts too, which can fail without routine servicing. So in this episode I service the in-haul/in-mast furler, which, by the looks of it, hadn't been serviced in the lifetime of the boat - which would have been over 20 years! I also add grease nipples / zerk fittings into the gearbox to make it easier to add grease and prevent future lubrication problems.
