Krissy Posted August 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 I have heard that certain sails are made for what weight you are. So if it isnt a rude question or if its relevant what weight are you guys? I live on the border of NSW and Vic. I have currently got the old fashion sail, you know all the pretty colours. I was wondering if the bolt ropes are the same thickness as that one. How old is your sail pointed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointed Reply Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 It's more about the condition of the sail and how it has been looked after and used and not about age. My sail is about 8 yrs old, about the same as Marks. Most sails are cut pretty much the same and it is about sail trim and setup than about weight of the sailor. I am light and do better in light wind. All sails fit all masts. The cut of the newer sails allow for more mast rack. Which side of the mountains are you ? Coast or inland ? Eden or Albury ? I live in Tumut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissy Posted August 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Ok cool thanks for that info. Inland, I sail at Yarrawonga. Thats expensive for a old sail to me. Any movement in the price at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
