Posts: 2,921 Michigan | My Ullman seems awfully full. Dunno, ive been messing with the mast prebend to alleviate the issue.
If I were to buy a main today I think I would want a Glaser main. Thanks dude... Glaser seems like a good option (least expensive as well). Any other suggestions? | | | Re: F16 Sails

Posts: 1,479 Thailand | I’ve found it’s better to pay a little more up front when you consider the potential hassle and added expense involved with shipping back and forth over faulty workmanship or just ending up with an inferior F16 main that you are not happy with.
If it were me I’d cut the chase and go with a Goodall or Ashby main. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Posts: 264 Long Island, NY | I have P19 sails made by Ullman when Jay worked there. It was nice being able to easily get Jay on the phone to answer detailed questions regarding the sails and boat handling. I think it's a plus having easy acess to the person who made the sails.

Posts: 1,479 Thailand | I’ve no experience with the P19 main sail but the F16 is fairly cutting edge. What I personally appreciate is no need for phone calls over goof ups! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
