Yes again nothing is perfect. The advantage of the Dutchman is that you
don't have to worry about battens getting caught.

Stus-List Doyle StackPack or Mack ?

2015-12-09 Thread Spencer Johnson via CnC-List
TimI have a Doyle StackPack complements of very wise prior owners.  It is 
one of the best things about my sailseasy to drop into, a bit of a pain to 
raise as all sails are with lazy jacks.  The absolute best thing about the 
StackPack is how well it treats the sails...no sail ties to compress or wrinkle 
the sails...never a crease.  The top edge of the StackPack is the dual 
fiberglass rods that keep it's nice shape.  Mine is probably 15 years old and 
maybe getting kinda tired.  I just had the zippers replaced.  The sail is in 
pretty good shape for it's age...it is in for inspection and cleaning now.


I will be getting another StackPack when the time comes.  I have seen other 
versions and none have been as well engineered as Doyle.
