When they're delivered in about two to three weeks I'll bend 'em on and go sailing. I'll take some pictures and make a new page so you can compare with the old pages. If they impress me I'll even put in a good word and a link for the sailmaker. Maybe drum up some more business for him. That way when I sail to Honk Kong some day, I'll have a contact there.

Hey Guys, Neal's sail is (or was) self footed but is so blown out that there is no reason to ease the outhaul. That sail is baggy enough with full outhaul pressure. The shelf has become part of the sail. When he gets his new main he'll probably get the sail off the shrouds. Neal, we've never asked, are you going to specify a shelf in your new sail? You could save a buck or two with a simple closed footed sail. OT |
