| Gaff sail material...? I am looking for material for a gaff sail. around 175 quarefeet. boom 13 1/2 luff 9 1/2 gaff 13 1/2 gaff angle 45 degrees I don't want to use canvas but a more modern rot/UV resistant material. Does anyone have resources, tips or a simple answer for this? What would be a "normal" weight for recreational sailing? Thanks |
