Per my questions a few days back, I've gotten some quotes on asymmetrical
spinnakers for Windstar- quite a difference between standard and made to
order. 'Standard' seems to involve 1.5 oz cloth (at i spinnakers and rolly

Dave, will you be using the kite in strong winds? Will you be using it a lot?
If the answers to both those questions is yes, then go with the heavier
material. But if you plan to use it while cruising to avoid having to turn the
engine on in light winds, then go for the .75.
My use is in lighter
We, often sailing in very light wind, just received a 'windseeker' sail.
Haven't tried it yet, because we had 8-10 on Wednesday (and won). The sail
is attached to the tack, hoisted on its own luff rope, and is high cut - out

It's time to replace the main and genoa on my 38 mk2 (and I actually have
the money to do it).
I'm more of a cruiser than a racer any more. I only do about 4 charity races
a year, and have been adding cruising gear to the boat for trips to the
Bahamas (and Bermuda next June). So I guess I'm loo
Try Ullman Sails in Deltaville. Jerry or Justin can help you. Good folks.

I’ll second that recommendation. Although I haven’t bought any sails from them
I will be when the boat is put back together. I’ve seen their product up close
and in action, heard other recommendations and spoken with them.
Of course, by the time I need to purchase sails, most likely we’ll be usi

My exterior handrail replacement project is underway - began removing the
handrails today. The bases of the exterior handrails were bedded to the
cabintop gelcoat with what appears to be some kind of silicone-like substance.
Can anybody recommend a good solvent for that stuff? I tried

The only thing I ever found to remove silicone was good old gasoline.

Hi Randy,
I've been using the MCKANICA Silicone Caulk Remover and have had very good
results. It dissolves the silicone quite well and it's very easy to remove.
It works in 10-15 minutes.
