BEST RESULTS! We are very happy with weed string trimmer line with tape. cabon 2mm rod cannot be rolled up. 505 material vacuumed heated for camber with 4mm wide Dacron tape as batons stiff. 9ft sails. ( I have a vintage 64" J hull mold I'm developing right now. ballast keel, deck, mast, sails, expected to be offered as a 3/4 complete kit at around one thousand delivered. [email protected]
