Hi Tom
I have the same model as Andrew.
I replaced mine with a Furlex below deck unit. I looked at above deck furlers, but due to the close proximity of the anchor gear, this option was going to be problematic. I also looked at the small drum units that used a tape rather than rope to furl, but these appear to have serious reliability issues with the tape. Once I got the furler line angle spot on below deck, the Furlex seems to work fine.
I do use an electric sheet winch with a lot of care to furl.
