Edd;
I bought a 135 genoa for my 38 from Rolly Tasker sails in Brooksville, FL for $2200 before I went to Bermuda last year. The sail is made of 7.7 oz. Marblehead low-aspect fabric (the best grade I could find short of a laminate), with medium weight selected for the wind conditions I expect to find in NC and the Chesapeake. Sail has a foam luff to reef to 100%, draft strips, sail numbers, and a trim stripe to help in positioning the genoa cars. Jockey Red Sunbrella UV cover. Made to the dimensions I sent, with tweaking after a couple of conversations to get the clew height just above the lifelines to facilitate trimming. (The light 130 I had been using had a high clew and the boat was just about 5’ too short to get a good sheet lead for trimming... go figure… so the choice was new sail or bigger boat.) I’m very happy with the sail, and with the communication and service I got. And the sail was actually delivered a couple of weeks ahead of the promised date.

Listers, I just took my genoa off the forestay for the winter and it looks like, after 13 seasons, well... how do I put this.... “She’s dead, Jim.” So now I’m in the market for a new 135 cruising headsail, with RF tape, draft stripes, sun cover on the leech and foot, and sail numbers. Given that I don’t race the Enterprise any more, I don’t need any super laminates, but I’d like something not too heavy. Really just something that will get me where I need to go, be it a daysail, an overnighter or a C&C Rendezvous. And, oh yeah, no bank breaking. Any recommendations? Are those overseas outfits like Far East any good? All the best, Edd --------------------------------------- Edd M.
