I went through 2 North 3DL #1 genoas over 6 years. One good year, one average year and one lousy year for each sail. The plastic laminate was a poor product for sure. I bought the North 3DI raw for my #1 & #3 plus mainsail and they are as new after 3 full race seasons. A bit more money but

We set the pole at pulpit height with the downhaul cleated and it is essentially a sprit. On a short leg in course racing we just use a 2’ tack line as pole setup takes a bit of time. With the pole that low the guy runs inside the lifelines Peter Kirkwood 38 mk2 On Thu, Jan 28, 2021 at 8:10 PM
