Typhoon Mainsail

Post by Jerry Cureton »

My main is shot. Does any one have any thoughts on a new one? weight of cloth? Length of battens? Best price?

Mine too. Not surprising after 27 years!

I'm ordering a new one in Challenge 5.6 oz "High Aspect" Dacron, tapered battens with full length top batten. I got quotes via email from about 10 different lofts and prices ranged from $450 up to $700.

Regards,
Richard.
