Which Sail Manufacturer is next? Are they buying out the competition, or making sure that they cover the spectrum of buyers?

Have you spoken to Kent @ CD? If you don't know him, he used to be @ CTY Engineering so is a great resource.
Oftentimes they have or have access to non listed items.
Otherwise the Fourm 101 links to the post about the upgrade, which lists bolt sources.

Last post by Phil Spicer - September 01, 2025, 05:51:08 PMJon, no pictures of the Phifertex in place. Will try to take pictures in the next few days. Also made a piece to zip across the back and a piece to zip on the side. With zippers the full length of both sides, the side piece can zip to which ever side needs shade.

Last post by Jim Hardesty - September 01, 2025, 03:11:27 PMFor a quick and low cost prototype try this from Harborfreight. I made up one, use it in the fall when the sun hangs low. I just clip and or tie it. Doesn't look good but does work.

Thanks for the heads up, I'm familiar with that technique I used it when I started racing before I went to a folding prop.
