Hi Neal,

Looking at your posting, I see the effect of the full moon on them.

Watch your Med Dosage. You may have to adjust some.

Just got my new North Main yesterday. 7oz Dacron with full battens (5 of
them)
Don't know if I'll get it on today? My Son is going into minor surgery
today, so I think I'll forgo it for another day. I'll get a picture of
it so you can get a chance to give me your (honest) evaluation. The Moon
will be on its wane by then. You'll feel better then, as long as you
don't compare with that Main you have. To get something to compare your
Main to it would have to be well into the last century that it was made.

RB,

Oz is correct. You didn't really get any of the necessary information on
a modifaction. There are systems that can be added using the existing
mast and rigging, with their own + & -, But screw you now, Big Mouth.
You'll now have to be content with your usual half-ass knowledge.

I didn't ask for any. I only asked why gains and losses he'd have. I never even
mentioned the boat involved until later.
I got exactly what I required.
Thanks.

Before the end of the year I'll have a new main and working
jib probably custom made at Calvert Sails loft in Islamorada,
Florida Keys.

You guys shamed me into it. Yes, do make a pic available of
your new North. My old mainsail is a North and it has given
way too many years of good service - more than even I expected.

That sail probably has 12 or 13 thousand miles on it.

If we could only shame you into a US Yachts 27 or Mac26X...anything better than
that Coronado 27!

Read: It was sewn in Thailand and has sat on the boom ever since.
