Well, it seems that I've gotten as much use out of my jib zipper as possible and now need to replace it.
I haven't liked the typical "fine gauged" factor zippers because they seem to be prone to fail, jam, become misaligned when first starting, etc.
I've always thought a larger gauge zipper would work lots better, like those sewn into zippered doors and windows of boat tops and enclosures; for example something like Vislong 10 mm finished zipper, single slider from Sailrite.com
What say you guys???
Thanks,
Tom
