Stus-List Re: UV Strip
You know, I would bet dollars to donuts that if you offered the loft to remove the old UV Cover, so all the loft had to do is cut and sew a new one on, you would get quite a break. It is a pain in the Arse to get something like that in, that takes more time to clean up and prepare than it does to just do the job the first time. Just sayin.

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.

I just had North replace the UV cover on my 135%. It was a boat buck ($1k). Hadn't heard of the sock method; so not sure if it's still an option from them.
