Sail "tape" - 09/17/16 09:34 PM
Hello all, long time no post for me....
There is a type of tape at the bottom of my Ullman main that runs from the clew to the tack and is basically fibers underneath a transparent tape. On my Glaser main, it is also at the head running to the top 2 and 3rd batten pockets at the leach of the sail. It really seems like a HMW fiber tape. It is clearly meant to take some load but it isn't sewn into the sail. Anyone know what this is called or where to source it?
Thanks
