Mike/Brucat??? So the IWCA doesn't want to follow "SMOD" as they have found that the IWCA sailors can purchase sails cheaper from Independent Sailmakers ......
Hobie stock main white list =$812
Calvert wave main list =$900 Tri-radial Pentex add $352 = $1252 Load path add $407 = $1307

So I'm expected to pay extra $$$$'s for a product from a manufacture that doesn't meet my needs...

No, you wouldn't be expected to pay more. Why would you buy a WAVE Main anyway... for your 18? That wouldn't make sense Harry. I think you'd be a little underpowered

In ten seconds of google searching I found a Wave main from a respectable loft for less than the Hobie stock sail.
The Calvert might be a little more, but I'm willing to bet the difference in price it's a whole lot better value than the stock sail. And it's probably made in the US instead of by slave-labor in Malaysia or wherever.
