Dane,
I recently purchased a new sail for my boat. I got the sail from Gary Swensen out of Ventura,Ca who is an Ullman Sails sailmaker.
I was interested in a cruising sail and ended up getting two reef points with the second one up quite a way up compared to the old sail, loose foot, and extra long battens. I forget what weight the cloth is but it is significantly heavier than the original I had.
The sail has maximun luff with tensioning done on the cunningham, with no cunningham it is just right for running. My boom is fixed, does not slide up and down on the mast.
Prior to buying this sail I purchased a 135 from Swenson and the two work very well together.
Bill
