All of a sudden we are having trouble getting the mainsail on our Capri to run fully up the mast when raising the sail. If I try it at the dock when there is no load on the sail, it runs freely up, but when we try to hoist the sail for real, we can't get the last 6-8" up and no amount of tugging on the halyard will raise it that last bit. It's like the boltrope is stuck in the track somewhere. Fortunately, the sail will come right down.
I don't see anything wrong with the boltrope or the "bullet" at the head of the sail. Someone suggested lubricant for the boltrope track, but this is so sudden, I'm wondering whether or what teh cause might be. ANy ideas welcome.
