We are having significant issues raising our main with the Stack-pak / fully battened main. It seems to me like the battens almost always snag on the main as it is being raised....esp. when motoring into the wind, but even on nearly calm days when basically still in the water....I've considered using bungee chords to spread the sail cover so the battens are pulled apart, thereby opening up the slot...but this doesn't really work most of the time....are there any solutions or should I go back to the Neil Pryde main that came with the boat....it is in near perfect condition in my basement and I can't think of a good reason not to use it, but my wife has; i.e. thought of good reasons not to use the original mainsail.....Your thoughts and solution (s) are appreciated !
