I guess it also depends of the type of sail, whenever possible I roll my
Pentex/FlexP sails ( laminate ).
From Haarstick documenttion they seem to recommend rolling them:
"Always roll sails when possible and if you do have to fold them, avoid folding
on the same spot"
They also say to avoid heat ( like in the trunk of your car ), and I read
somewhere to avoid extremes cold ( can be -30 here in january ).
I really like the idea of storing them under the bed, might try that this year
:-)

My theory:
1. Make sure they are completely dry.
2. Fold or roll them as you prefer.
3. Put them in their bags.
4. Store them anywhere
They are plastic and will not go bad. The big enemy is mildew.

Hate to discuss this so soon but just curious what best practice is for winter
sail storage. With limited space I am considering my attic. Any thoughts for
us Midwestern boat owners?
Thanks
