Bill, Beats me how old. It came from another 35/3 owner on the list. I've put 3,000 miles on it the last 2 seasons, and it shows. Shape has not changed, but the luff is worn/has small holes. I had repairs done last year. No delamination luckily.
The sail is fine on the Bay, but I would not go offshore with it. In my very limited experience, when laminate sails fail, they fail completely.
