I ordered some from Mainesail, I’ll see how it compares to the roll I got from 
Worst Marine when it gets here.

Will do.  I suspect demand will be high for the first while, which is why I 
pre-ordered.  They don't bill until it ships regardless. 

They  are a good outfit. They bought all the old Catalina parts when Catalina 
converted a warehouse to more production space. When they didn't have what I 
needed, they hunted it down for me. I wish they had C parts.

Best Pinto I ever saw was in a campsite in Cape Cod. It had been converted into

Seems the old supplier has a dead end link to "sailboatowners.com".



I tried a few google searches but they were all dead ends except one selling a 
roll for $40.  I have a roll from SailRite that is crap.  It was fine when new, 
but after some months onboard this summer, it's now a real struggle to remove 
from it's own wax paper and stretches and breaks.  Had to use a putty knife to
