Simple,
The only thing your old main is efficient at is wrapping galley wasteG "You know you're not a sailor when your main isn't worth the price of the Prop on your Beanie" Neal you are in that category:^) "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!" Ole Thom |

Hey Neal,
I just thoughtof something. North is giving me 25% off the purchase price ($368.00) What are your dimension of your main? They can't be that far off of mine. For $368 you have a huge improvement on your boat. This sail is only 14 years old and in good condition but would need a tuck taken in it. Spec;= E=10' 4" P=31' Sail Area=160 Sq Ft Two Reefs, plus a flatting reef ( Which I have been sailing the last two years 3/4" flat sail slides for mast, 3/8" bolt rope for boom. 4" tack off set It's yours for $368, if you're interested Ole Thom |

![]() P is to long, my P is 27 feet (problem). I is too long, my I is 10 feet (probably not a problem). I have round slides (problem). The tack offset is about right, boltrope for boom is right. The main problem is it's too tall. Close but no banana! Thanks, Thom, but it wouldn't fit and it's probably more worn out than mine because you motor most of the time with the sail flogging like Booby does. "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ...

I is 10'? Is that some kind of a 3/8 fractional rig? What's your "J"
measurement? About 3'? -- ---- Steve S/V Pony Express "Simple Simon" wrote in message ... P is to long, my P is 27 feet (problem). I is too long, my I is 10 feet (probably not a problem).

Ey --- Give me a break!!!
North uses I for the foot. I knew what Old Thom meant because I am a sailor who is familiar with any and all sailing terms. The older terms are much more sensible than the new crap that some lubber came up with. S.Simon "Scott Vernon" wrote in message ...
