I rig my preventer from the boom end and go forward to the bow cleat, across the bow to the opposite cleat and down to the stern cleat. So the preventer line is on the opposite side to the boom I have seen several tutorials where they go from boom to bow cleat and down the same side to the stern cleat Is there any pro or con to either setup Thanks

My sail company correspondence Appreciate the note What pisses me off is the lack of attention to detail and both sails being incorrect despite all my efforts to confirm you had what you needed. As far as I’m concerned your pre production and production is a shit show with zero oversight. I earn my living running large construction and ballistic hardening jobs. I wouldn’t last if I did my work like precision. Look what yall did to me. Zach told the design/loft guys starboard for the sunscreen per his email I previously supplied. I also supplied 3photos of the slides with a tape measure showing mm and inches in the photo . You still provided the wrong size. Next thing that is seriously disappointing are the sail bags. They are just sized big enough to place a perfectly folded sail inside . I don’t know too many sailors with a loft available to fold em up the way they arrived. the sail bags should be at least 3 times the size supplied so one can stuff a sail into. The old sails had big sail bags I could go on…. I don’t like the culture that allows both items in an order to be wrong.

Considering its carbon overlaping genoa, how durable it is to tacking and flogging (in pre start)
@PrecisionSailLoftVictoria5 ай бұрын
All laminate sails are susceptible to delaminating, the quality of the lamination process has improved through the years but flogging and chaffing are keys causes to delamination. Sailors need to make an educated decision between the better sail shape retention of laminates vs the robustness of Dacron.
@LagleSailingTeam5 ай бұрын
@@PrecisionSailLoftVictoria in my case, dacron is out of question. Its more about is Tyra Ply worth higher cost vs Carbon sport, in terms of durability.

If you're measuring on grass, stake a long screwdriver in the cringle where you have the end of the tape measure to let you pull the sail and stretch it a bit.

Between both options. What would you say is more dangerous. If you catch a big storm (like a hurricane maybe) is better to be in the middle of the ocean and let the boat drift or in a coastal situation where you probably feel safer but the wind can push you and smash the boat against rocks. Probably a silly question but I have been thinking for a while.
@PrecisionSailLoftVictoria11 ай бұрын
Thanks for your question. The best case is to avoid hurricane force winds if possible. My opinion... I prefer a coastal situation where you can get the boat ready by reducing windage (remove sails, bimini, dodger, paddle boards etc) This is often hard to do while sailing.

Not any rush for this, but I would like for my Triradial Battenless in Mast Furling Mainsail, For Offshore use, to have - to help mentally picture it - 3.5 Reefs. So that after the second reef is furled, and with foresail furled, so no Cloth at bow or stern, there is 1.5 left to heave to with, and if conditions-deteriorate further the next reef leaves 0.5 exposed right at the Mast, with all driving forces close to vertical over the CoG / Keel. I’ve had Heave To Broken too many times due to SeeSaw motion from forward and aft Cloth to have anything other than that any longer tbh. I’m thinking Challenge 9.11 type Sailcloth would be up to the job ? Once the Boat Construction is underway, I’ll be in touch with Precision Sails. You impressed me with the information you provided me with, Concerning Battenless in Mast Furling Mains, tbh. Keep up the Great Work. Bob. 👍🏴⛵️

Before I watch, I predict they offer no information on how to are decisions about reef points. Aside from call us so we get you on the line with a SALESPERSON, which by definition makes this nothing but an AD, which KZfaq puts an AD in before and after. This makes the title CLICKBAIT. Whoever is in charge of this channel needs to be replaced. Let me watch the video now and see if I’m correct. EDIT: I’m pleased to say that I was INCORRECT. Well done, much better video than some of the recent posts.

Odd attitude frankly. Suspicious even. I emailed them with a provisional enquiry concerning something a bit different and special, specifically an important non standard Mainsail I need for my next Sailboat, which isn’t even on the Construction schedule heat, and I needed to know in Advance whether what I needed - a Battenless Triradial in Mast Furling Main, could be Built for me, for Offshore Use. I got a very Prompt reply, with extremely useful extra information, that went above and beyond anything I expected. Do you Troll for A N Other Sailmaking Loft, by any Chance ? 🤔

My C30 has three bails along the length of the mid-section of the boom with mid-boom sheeting. With the loose footed main the upward load on the boom is near the end at the clew so this distance between the upward load at the clew and the downward load on the bail for the mainsheet creates a significant bending moment in the boom. Is there any concern about breaking the boom with a loose foot over that would have been in the original design with the fixed footed main that the boat was designed for?
