Mike,

Thanks. I don’t race the Enterprise any more (can’t fit any more trophies in 
the case) and now only use her for day sailing and cruising. 

I didn’t raise the main once last year simply because it’s such a PITA to flake 
and tie up when dropping the sail, especially when it’s just two of us on 
board. 

All the best,

Edd

Hi Edd
 
Rod Stright (C&C 99 Equinox) had one on his former boat (Frers 33).  I raced 
with him one Wednesday evening when he had just returned from a delivery and 
the Stack Pack was not yet replaced with his racing main.  I was very surprised 
at the performance from this sail.  After the race it almost disappeared it 
stowed so quickly.
 
I was very impressed with the sail
 
If I had a much larger budget for Persistence a Stack Pack main sail would be 
near the top of my list for deliveries and cruising.
 
I think the biggest drawback would be switching from racing sails to cruising 
sails.  The stack pack is like lazy jacks with a line attached up the mast that 
is not used when racing.  Could be a pain but I suspect could also be tied down 
near the shrouds when not using stack pack the way I do with  lazy jacks.
