America's Cup sail design
How many times are you going to say this
wrote in message oups.com... ... All seamless string sails do have seams. Molded sail technology relies on flat mylar in a roll form, they broad seam the mylar for the initial shape. Ain't marketing a great? Yeah, I know a sail maker who worked with a major on the last cup and he claimed that they routinely re-cut "molded" sails but their license with North required that they cover any seams with draft stripes. I guess the marketing boys didn't want to confuse the general public... -- Tom. |
