It has been my experience in the past that Doyle's pricing system is such that it ends up too expensive to convert an older sail. But it could vary by loft. Ahmet Boston,Ma On Dec 10, 2015 8:54 AM, "Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List" wrote: > I was looking at the Doyle Stack Pack information on their web s

I know that the Mack Pack can be done for either loose footed or attached foot mains without modification to the sail. Mine (loose footed) has slugs that go into the boom track. I think the other version straps under the boom. Dave Dr. David Knecht Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology Core

Mike, I can't see anything that sets the stack pack apart from any other sail pack or any reason that the main would need modified. I looked and looked at the Doyle website marketing (videos and text). The only thing which seems to be "needed" is a loose footed mainsail. Even that might not be

I just went with a loose footed mainsail and a dutchman flaking system. I could have modified my sail cover to suit but replaced it instead since I'm gradually changing colors. I ordered a new mainsail & 135 self furling genoa from Quantum loft in Annapolis. Bob Sent from my iPhone, Bob Boye

It depends on your preferences. If you don't want to loose performance then the Dutchman is the way to go. However you will have to deal with the sail cover. The Mack Pack requires a loose footed sail, and is easier to implement. It does not require modifications or anything sawn to your sail. The

I looked at them at the Newport Boat Show two years ago and decided on the Mack Pack. It is well designed and I find it so much easier to use to cover and uncover the sail than a standard cover. Lots of clever little things that make it easier to use. It can be rolled up for racing but most of

Hi Tim, I don't really have a recommendation except to get to a good sized boat show and try to talk to a few lofts to get some boat show discounts. I think I saved about $1200 on two sails from a very reputable loft that way. I hit 15% off. I still priced out other local lofts and it really
