Main Sail

Haro,  Webmaster
1999 Catalina 36 MKII

It is finally time to replace my stretched main sail.
I am currently looking for a sail maker to provide a suitable cloth for high winds of San Francisco Bay.
It has 4 full battends, 2 reef points with jack lines for each of them. It also includes Dutchman Reefing with a total of 14 buttons with slits.
There are images to view here in C36 Album
The sail was removed twice in the last 13 years that I have owned the boat. The first time was when the reef cord broke and the luffing sail ejected some of the buttons. I replaced them and drilled holes and sewed them together to prevent loosing them again.
The second time was when it got torn due to high winds.
Stay tuned for more later.
