Old sails are mostly junk anyway so the the best of them and get it converted and use the rest for something else.
No you cannot use hank on sails with a roller and it typically costs about $400 per sail to change. So if the sails are over 10 years old (unless a storm sail) then don't worry about the rest of them From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Curtis Sent: Friday, April 25, 2014 2:29 PM To: CnC-List@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Hank on conversion to roller? Yes or no if anybody has been reading my post in the last 2 years you know that I'm green at big boat sailing. I have learned how to sail the C&C30 MK1 using all hank on sails. that's a: 115% 135% 155% and a 170% We just got back from a bare boat charter in the BVI. I sailed 7 days on a Jeanneau 36i with a roller. Man what a dream that roller furling system was. How much trouble will it be to convert my boat? Could I use one of the head sails to convert or do I have to buy a new sail? Will all my head sails become un-usable at that point? It may not be worth the money or the wast of the old sails? Please comment on this if you k now cost of a conversion or advice in this process. Thanks so much for your help. Curt, . C&C30 MK-1 HIN # 675
