  Richard,

  Bullshit!  To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a single =
performance oriented sailboat racing class that prefers to use loose =
footed mainsails.  I don't know why Doyle has made this marketing =
decision.  Fortunately, there are plenty of other choices of sailmakers =
& I would run, not walk, away from this idiot at Doyle.

    The mainsail on my boat is pretty much shot also.  My boat is a =
re-mfg 1990 and I insisted on the old style spars (non IMF) and the sail =
I have is all that Stan had.  I got in touch with Doyle regarding a new =
main the sail they suggust has 2 full length battens at the head and 2 =
partial battens towards the foot.

    The sail they quoted was also loose footed!  When I expressed =
surprise I was told that (Doyle) was no longer building mains with bolt =
ropes along the foot.  There contention is that a loose footed sail =
set's better and last longer.
