Fred:
I got a new Doyle 135% 8.3 oz dacron.....I specifically ordered a
foam luff.....the sail maker, whom I know personally, ignored my request
and left out the foam luff.....said the sail would work fine with out
it. If I didn't like it he would take the sail back and put it on.
Do I miss it, no.....can I furl the sail down to 100% - 110%......no
problem at all.
Just my experience!

I’m going to be ordering a new furling 135% headsail for my LF38,
and would like everyone’s input on whether or not to pay the extra
$$$ for a foam luff. In the past, I haven’t relied much on
furling, knowing that regardless of the foam luff (or not), a
furled sail’s shape isn’t going to be ideal.
Thoughts?
