When you get a minute add a Signature line, like Jeff has. They post automatically.

Member name (top of page)/Signature. Lets everyone know location, boat model, engine and so on.

Been a while since have used actual forums lol thanks for reminding me ... It also didn't help just been lurking for a couple months lol

Tough to resist the urge to dive in, but I'd patch it for now and sail her and save the real job for the winter. Rule #1: go sailing! Good luck and keep us posted.

Yup but when down since need a new main (think mine is old enough it's not worth just getting it patched) but I might look into it at least as for a spare

We were going to put off buying new sails for a few years and patched a ripped jib. The following good breeze, the sections next to the patches tore out. When it's toast, it's toast. Have tote bags made out of the old sail and enjoy the new one. A new sail really is a magical thing.

Just sail the boat. No $1500 boat is perfect. Just sail the thing.

After all, half the fun of sailing is collecting and sharing the stories of how things worked along the way. At least in the re-telling.
