Seems like your wonderful Deck Level Furler is just "Junk" now. Worth
nothing on e-bay because of the Track attached.


Seems like a very poor mental error on your part. I want to go on
recorded of not agreeing with any thing you've done with your Head
Sail. Starting with the purchase of a racing jib for a cruising knock
about boat,


Thom, I paid nothing for the Pentax Mylar. I thought I e-mailed you and
gave you the facts. I traded a sail from my closet, a 1989 Kevlar Lt.
#1 from a J35. To be fare, it's in like new shape and worth more than
what I'm getting, but I couldn't use it or recut it and I got less that
400 bucks for the last one I sold.
The pentax mylar has only been cut down 8% and a new cover added. I've
been promised that it's 8-9 condition or my money back. Same for the
main and that sail, already delivered, is hard to rate much below a 10
for condition.
The Genoa was cut high to make it easier for a small crew to handle and
for singlehanding. The deck sweeper is a pain and I don't race. On top
of that the loft threw in new battens for the main and is including a
lazy jack system for free. I can't see the downside of a basically free
hi tech sail, cut for easier handling that I will use for bopping
around the bay. True, we're not taking advantage of the below deck
furler, but so what? I'm not taking advantage of all the 35s5's
potential or any boat for that matter. Who does? Perhaps you can
enlighten me?
