Yes, white, radiant, brilliant, clean, new, polished and spic and span

Not some old yellowing rags most of this group calls sails
and use on THEIR boats.

Your sails are worn out from the vibration your twin diesels
cause. Your poor mainsail sitting bunched up there atop the
rattling boom vibrating and chafing is a sad spectacle.

Yes, that's something else I need to add to my list of why
diesels are inferior to outboard motors - severe sail chafe.

Believe it or not when I was a boy on the farm and had to get
up every morning at five AM to hand milk a couple cows and three
goats I actually used bag balm on some of the animals whose
udders were a bit raw. It really seemed to help.

Thanks old fellow. I stopped and got a little lunch and made a quick web
page so you could all see how much better my new sails are than my old.

I'm hoisting sail again in a few minutes because conditions are great.
I've got plenty of beer and ice and new sails.
