[C38] Headsail Luff conversion

[Jim and Barbara]

I agree with Les' comments.  My personal favorite for used sails is
http://www.baconsails.com/.  I have no affiliation with them, but I drop in
their store almost every time I'm in Annapolis, and have bought a couple of
sails from them.  Good folks, good prices, good selection.

Subject: [C38] Headsail Luff conversion


Hi everybody,

I need some advise from you.
I recently bought a roller furler for Estancia, and I need to change the
luff on my headsail from hanks to luff tape. they are old and just want to
take advantage of them while I buy a new one on a couple of years.

My question is:
Are there any downsides for this conversion???? I found the luff tape kit
sailrite.com for $120.
The other choice is replacing the sail, but it will obviously involve mooore
money!

Is this woth it????

thaks,
