New main ordered

[John Langford]

I just ordered a new cross cut main for my MK II tall rig from Bill James at FX Sails. What a pleasant and informative experience. He spent 45 minutes on the phone with me, talked me out of buying the offshore version of the main (which would have been more expensive) and generally gave me at least as much professional attention as I have ever received from UK or North in person. And the price is outstanding for a sail made with premium dacron in the United States. More than can be said for the so-called majors. With the difference I can buy a stack pack of some sort and still save money.

The sail will be delivered in 5-6 weeks and I am looking forward to seeing if it lives up to its promise. I will report back.

Happy New Year all.
