I'm in the v-berth enjoying a quiet night with clear skies, and a crapload of stars I don't normally see at home.. I just got done installing the other XAS triple clutch on my 89. This took only 30 minutes and was done just before the sun went down. Now I can handle all these new lines lead to the cockpit.
I got to the lake late because I had to make a quick trip to Austin before Bartlett closed in order to pick up my new custom main!!!. I took accurate measurements 3 weeks ago so he could build me a perfect fit with loose foot, oversized roach, 6.5oz dacron, larger slugs, and a 130% batten. The batten and slug sizes were his idea. He also gave me several pointers for racing my WK as a bonus. Had a great time learning everything he had to offer. I highly suggest you give John Bartlett a call if you prefer not to go with an off the shelf cheapy sail. He has tons of sailing experience and doesn't mind sharing it.

Well, it's too dark for pics, so i'll have to take them in the morning.

Bartlett is very popular with the C-22 crowd. I raced with a friend who bought a set. I wasn't all that thrilled with the genoa, but I really liked the main.
