Ebay sails..
After a lot of time waiting for the right-ish size to come up, I won an
almost new dacron main and jib sail to act as spares. I took both my original set and the replacement ones to North Sails today to make sure they were compatible. The main was exactly the right size up top, only needing 3' cut off the foot - cost approx $400. So plus the purchase price of $260 plus delivery, I feel quite pleased! The new main has battens, whereas the original one didn't. The sailmaker said that the original was a cut-down already, which is why the battens weren't present. Lets hope the jib is as compliant! PS Larry - I bought a 1200a/hr generator - chinese - new for $100. It's a 2-stroke (No matter - I ride an old Vespa). I'll let the list know how it performs. -- Molesworth |
