You be the judge!
Side-by-side comparison? 1) Complete sealing and protection of sail? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO, leaves holes in sailcover. 2) No modes to mainsail inventory required? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO, mods required. 3) Usable as sail matures? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO, only works well with newer sails. 4) Easy removal or sail changes? Doyle-YES Dutchamn-NO, requires setup each time. 5) Allows for removal of sail with cover? Doyle-YES Dutchman NO. 6) Integrated sailcover? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO. seperate sailcover must be used. 7) Easy removal for racing? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO, hard to remove. 8) Reefing stows excess sail material out of sight? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO. 9) No additional windage presented by system? Dutchman-YES, Doyle-NO, minimal windage on most boats. 10) No chafing risks? Doyle-YES Dutchman-NO, some chafing over time. I'm NOT affiliated with Doyle or Dutchman or North sails. Good luck! RB 35s5 NY |
