Chuck, check out John Jenkins sails in Annapolis. I'm thinking of getting a new main this year with a stack pack arrangement of some kind. He's local and very good; Chris Price On 01/27/2021 8:24 PM CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List wrote: > > > The Tides Marine strong track is v

I switched my regular sail cover over to a stack pack and lazy jack system about 5 years ago. I have to say I love it and more importantly the admiral loves it. It makes dropping the sail and covering super easy. There is no struggling with sail ties.I especially appreciate it in snotty

I made lazy jacks for my Catalina 27. I had cleats on the mast at boom height (from PO) on both sides so after the sail was dropped and strapped, I pulled the lazy jacks forward and covered the main with un-altered cover. I no longer have pictures but will attempt to describe. My lazy jacks we
