Glad to hear you like your new sail Dave. I've got the same one on order from Judy. Can't wait to try it out this spring.

It's a Great sail and at 7 oz will last much longer than stock Mac. sail. Also does much better motorsailing in head winds.

I'm trying to sort out how to re-connect the bolt rope to the tack without having to do major surgery to the sail - it truly is about 6" different in length now (the rope being shorter), and is pretty much out of the reinforced tack corner.
