Hi Guys/Gals,
Just wondering what people are going to these in terms of racing genoas and
the longevity of the racing headsails in particular. The choices seem to
be:
1. Cross cut using modern laminates lie Flex Black from DP
2. Tri Radial construction that allows better shape retention and
supposed longer life than the moulded sails
3. Moulded sails like North 3 DI or Doyle's Stratis sails
The options are pretty much in order of price I believe with the moulded
sail being the most expensive. With the low Canadian dollar sails have
gone up considerably so I want to make an informed decision about what is
the best value and performance
Regards
Rod Stright
