Just wanted to thank everyone on this post from a couple of months ago. Took the advise of 100% of the replies and bought a new set of sails. Michigan's start to the summer has been ridiculously cold and rainy, so it has taken a while to get out to try the new sails. Did one test sail to get everything set up (relearn how to set up the boat every year). Then a local beer can race. WOW......WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Finished ahead of two boats I could not get ahead of before.
If anyone asked me what should I buy new sails or self-tailing winches, I'll advise, no question new sails. The advise here was spot on.
