 Sorry ….. I steered you wrong below.  I meant you probably don't have enough wraps still on the drum when your sail is rolled in (not out).  So, follow the same procedure below to add more wraps on the drum when your sail is already rolled in on the drum.

  I don't know that you need to replace the furler line.  It definitely sounds instead that you don't have enough wraps still on the drum when your sail is completely out.  Get your sail as far on the furler as you can, unhook the sheets temporarily, turn your sail/furler by hand to get at least several wraps of line pulled onto the drum (Jeff suggested 10), attach your sheets again, and then pull on the furler line to completely wrap the sail on the furler so your sheets wrap around the sail at least a coup[le times.
