Thank you to Josh at Small Craft Advisor for republishing The Resourceful Sailor Performs Sail Surgery. This is about a DIY sail repair of the 80% jib’s leech line. Remember, it’s not a sail repair if you haven’t stabbed yourself with the needle! Click the SCA logo below to be directed to the article. Thanks for stopping by.
Monica and ‘Lectronic Latitude rock! It’s fun to be the far away Port of Bahia Asuncion in Baja California, Mexico and see your column still exists. Thank you so much. I’m not sure what my sailmakers at Northwest Sails, Sean and Holly, will think of this, but it wasn’t one they made for me anyway. But it sure is a necessary one. Something had to be done.
