Getting the sails professionally maintained is always a good idea. Some laces do more than just clean and re-stitch as necessary. Some can re-impregnate to give you more life to the sail. Neil 1982 C 32 FoxFire Rock Hall, MD Neil Andersen 20691 Jamieson Rd Rock Hall, MD 21661

I was told by a sailmaker that oxyclean is safe for dacron sails. He also said that after applying some with the detergent, let it sit for a while before rinsing.  We did that and gotout the vast majority of the stains. Bruce Whitmore 1994 C 37/40+ "Astralis" Sent from Samsung
