It was a boat buck ($1k). Hadn't heard of the sock method; so not sure if it's still an option from them.

I figured 5 or 6 boat bucks maybe. Well I figured wrong, the estimate came back at $1350! Yikes! Are they nuts or is this the going rate now? That seems like a pretty good chunk of an entire sail!” That included about $375 worth of repairs, but still at about $1000 for the UV strip I think it was double the last time I had that job done.
