First outing with new sail.
First mate was not up to it, so I single-handed. Very happy with the performance. I can tell that I'll be getting more speed in lighter winds. The boat heeled in situations where it wouldn't have with the old, baggy sail.

My new mainsail is here!
A belated but merry Christmas to us. In November, I decided our tired, 27-year-old mainsail needed to be replaced. I shopped around and found Precision Sail Loft online. Today, my sail arrived. Darryl and his crew are top notch. The sail is made of Challenge 6.11 Warp Drive sailcloth. I went for two full battens, two partial plus one reef. The sail is loose foot. I recreated the SYC 7.0 insignia in Photoshop.
