<br />Gary,
Just wanted to let you know that I received the sail and it looks great. I also noticed that, when I connect to the deck shackle, the sail doesn't go all the way to the top of the forestay. Looks to be about a foot or so short. Was it this way on your boat? I haven't been able to go sailing with it yet, however planning to go out, weather allowing, tomorrow.

Thanks again,
Roy

Glad you're happy with it! As I said before, it was in better condition than I had remembered.

Yes, when attached directly to the stem fitting it did not go to the top of the fore-stay. When I used that sail I always had a tack line on it so I could see under the sail. The tack line was approx. 12"-15" long and the foot of the sail was about even with the top of the bow pulpit. Made it really easy to see under the sail.

You can see how high it was off the deck in my signature picture.
