Risk Adverse 3 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 We are thinking about replacing our very old and saggy baggy mainsail for our H28. I would like to get a modern loose foot, fully battened sail, maybe just two reefing points Our sailing is mainly in the Hauraki Gulf with a little bit of coastal. What are the key things I should consider when comparing different quotes from the sailmakers? Do I need to remove the track from the boom as it won't be used? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Pope 243 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 You could use the track for a sailcover with lazy jacks loops on it, I have a loose footed mainsail and used the unused bolt rope tube in that fashion. Although I guess an H28 wouldn't need lazy jacks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
