If you look closely at the picture I posted, you'll see a bunch of junk at the boom. That's the remnants of the original sail configuration, boltrope and slug. This sail is not cut as a loose foot, and even at that, with the boltrope and the slug just laying there, the sail shape was SO much better, and the outhaul so easy to use that I'm maybe not going to do much more than remove the slug at this time.
There is a commonality between our boats and the sleds, and we can gain from the trickle down without the degree of investment. The dyneema has 2" velcro sewn to it. The sheer strength of the velcro is such that it has never come apart since being put on, and the only downside is the stuff is a royal pain to sew. It's almost impossible to get a straight stitch, the dyneema is so slippery. I doubt that regular nylon webbing would slide as easily, but would be much easier to sew. Tradeoffs.....
