I got this boat in April and it came with a roller furling. The roller furling is in bad shape, so I want to replace it with a new forestay. This is my first boat, so I am not confident on what exactly I need to purchase. I did read online that the forestay is Est. Forestay Len.:
33.05 ft / 10.07 m. This info came from https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/chrysler-26. Any help is appreciated.

I use the forestay that was inside my roller furling.

If the forestay is in good condition you will have no trouble re using it. If you are not replacing the roller reefing you can add the hank on attachment parts to the existing sail . What kind of a furler do you have . I have an old one and would love to have spare parts.
