Doyle used to make them for genoas; they may still. I obtained a quote for one several years ago for my 42, and the price was a little north of $700 as I recall. I suspect they’re more expensive now.

Or is anybody selling one? I ordered new racing sails this offseason and intentionally didn’t get a UV strip on the genoa, so I need a sock for UV protection when the boat’s not in use. The max luff length I measured for the genoa, from head attachment point on the swivel to tack attachment point on the furler drum, is 37’ 0.5”. I have a spare headsail halyard with which to hoist the sock, and bow cleats for cleating off any lines on the sock. Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
