NS knew it was a RF main. It has the correct UV cover and outhaul sheave.If North used the non-furling length ...
Good luck. It sounds like a good case.
- Was the boat available with a traditional sail?
- If yes, did the order state that it was for a furling sail? It surely must have, from the lack of battens and hollow leach. Thus, they knew. The sail is obviously designed for furling.
The boat was also available with a traditional mail. I would have preferred that.
I'm speculating that NS used the luff measure for a traditional main and not a RF main like they should have. It never crossed my mind.
