Hello,
I also like Endura Braid. Easy on the hand, doesn't stretch. I don't like
VPC - too stiff. For low budget I would just use Sta Set (not X). Or wait
for a good sale and get Endura.
Good luck,
Barry

this cannot be. As Rick said, if the CB was below the CG, the boat would

Many years ago, when I wasn't winning races with my first boat, I spoke with my
sailmaker about getting a new sail. Instead of selling me a new sail, he
suggested I work on my crew work, and only consider getting a new sail when I'm
losing races by seconds. Dave, are you losing races by
Good sailmaker, Alan! Bet you wouldn't go anywhere else for a sail, now.

also less weight aloft, although how much difference that makes on a
Harold,
I switched to all rope (VPC) using the same sheaves with no issues over 2
seasons. If weight were an issue I would go with Dyneema with a cover for

The PHRF ratings are the same for the 2 models. I've never sailed against
a c/b model. (I need to race Chef Dave next year!) I
Rate the same? H.
Only one 35-3 in my PHRF area (a FK) now but when there were both versions,
they were rated differently. My 35-1 owed the K/CB but the 35-3 FK owed me.
Don't recall the differentials.
Remember we usually held our time on the FK version both buoy and distance
racing.

Hello Harold,
I'm new to this Group so, don't know the format exactly.
I changed to high tech lines on all my halyards over the past few years.
My perceived advantages are as follows: less weight aloft (considerable,
maybe equivalent to a man on the rail),
much nicer on the hands if you need to
You might want to have a chat with the folks at Mars Metals. They may have a
more modern take on the keel design if you want to go deep. Cost vs. someone's
old castaway keel is a different animal of course.
