Mainsail Covers
 
Has anyone here bought one of those main sail covers from West Marine? The
local canvas place has a backlog and ours went shot-to at the end of the
season last year when a big storm blew up....problem is that it was custom
made for the lazyjacks...I really don't want to sacrifice the lazyjacks for
want of a main cover...push comes to shove, I guess I'll just tape up the
places where it went until we can get one ordered custom-made..

Oh Good Grief Kitty... go buy some sunbrella fabric and sew it up yourself!!
That's what I do. If you reached this point in your life and you can't sew a
stitch to save your life..... you'd better be a hellcat in the sack!

I hate to sew....when I was a kid I made a lot of my own clothes...my sister
"borrowed" my sewing machine and never returned it and so now it's
God-knows-where. For all I care, it can stay wherever that is.. I do the
general mending by hand and sew small rips, etc, but I have way too much to
do then to sit at a sewing machine...about the rest...I guess you'll never
know...

I had mine done custom. You could even buy the WM version and get it
altered. It's not that difficult.

Well Kitty... from what I've seen... you've been beggin' recipes from an
Aussie, and now admit you can't sew a stitch... I don't have to guess about
how good you are in the sack.... since you don't seem obedient.... it
appears it's your only strong suit!

Now where did you get I can't sew a stitch? I said I hand sew and mend and
I said I sewed my own clothes when I was a kid....I hated it...I am not a
very domestic person and never have been...my cooking skills are excellent,
however...and obedience is for dogs...my dog minds very well...

I certainly wouldn't waste your talents on a sewing machine.... obedience
is a matter of convincing your pet to do tricks..... I doubt you require any
convincing... considering you can't even sew a mainsail cover!

Well, we all know you're too poor to afford anything custom made. Why don't
you call me some really nasty names again. I'm sure that'll make you look
(in your own mind) like a big deal.

He's got a Cal 20. A protest flag can be used as a mainsail cover.






Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!
