ABSTRACT:
Working sails are furled remotely while aloft by progressively forming flexible sheet material along the forepart of the sail into a tubular bag containing the sail furled from leech to luff in such fashion that, when furling and bagging of the sail has been completed the lines employed for furling are contained with the sail in the bag.
