Re: M_Boats: Delivery Status Notification Re: Do I need new sails

16 Jun 2014

      I also get a message at times from “system-user@mms.mycricket.com” ...but turns out my post may show up anyway?

I am glad you mentioned this! I wasn’t sure what to do about it.

Rich,

I just went through the process of unsubscribing and resubscribing

to this site to try to clear up this kind of problem. Annoying to

Do you think there is some sort of hacking or just plain mucking

around going on??

I also just sent in a request to the members concerning the "Mastgate"

Thanks for the feedback Steve. Ditto on the "techy stuff". I also

get

I think if I get replies the techy stuff is doing something.

I do not trust a lot of techy stuff, which is among the reasons

Daniel,
...
...
...
...
...
As long as you are considering new sails, look into having the
...
...
...
...
...
main made as a loose footed one. The tack and clew will have to
...
...
...
...
...
be reinforced more than the usual and you will need to install
...
...
...
...
...
a bit better mechanical advantage on the outhaul fittings as
...
...
...
...
...
you will be using it to trim the draft on the main but the
...
...
...
...
...
boost in performance
...
is
...
...
...
...
...
said to be considerable. I am looking at new sails for the M17
...
...
...
...
...
I
...
have
...
...
...
...
...
and am seriously considering going the loose footed route.
...
...
...
...
...
Please reply to this email as I have concerns that my missives
...
...
...
...
...
to
...
this
...
...
...
...
...
website are not getting through to anybody.
...
...
...
...

Thanks,

Yup. You need new sails. And sails for the M15 are quite
...
...
...
...
...
reasonably
...
...
...
...
...
...
priced. I got mine from JudyB at Hyde. She did a fantastic job.
...
...
...
...
...
...
Measurements are key, as all these older M boats can have some
...
slight
...
...
...
...
...
...
differences. New sails change the boat so much you won’t
...
...
...
...
...
...
believe
...
it.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Which reminds me, Judy, I owe you some money and some sails!
