Tech Chat / Covers

Last post by Jimmy Rudd - December 05, 2023, 09:40:00 AM

Hi All,

I'm looking at getting a new top cover and spinnaker sock for EJ, and possibly an under cover too, we can split the cost of templating and get a small discount if anyone else needs any of these. Im told he uses a new fabric called Top Notch 9, breathable and chunky fabric. Id imagine the spinnaker sock is probably quite universal, velcro at the front end, sleeve underneath for the pole, and tabs with velcro for around the hoop.

Top Cover approx £375 (Top Notch 9)
Under Cover approx £250 (Polyester) or £330 (Top Notch 9)
Spinnaker Sock approx £80-140 depending on features, pockets, etc.

If anyone is interested please let me know asap.

Sits really well, just needs a clew board sticking on as current jib sheet position won’t work but that’s a quick and easy job!!

big thanks to everyone who helped at the sticky weekend especially to Paul who's compression bar shaping skills can only be described as witchcraft. first day off with the boat again means a bit of housekeeping, mast assembled but needs trimming so no rig tension just yet, jib fit is good and jib track is good to be fitted as planned, i guess that means its time to crack on

Note to self order more vac bag tape than you think you need, delivery landed in time to get the second case carbon’d up before sticky weekend, I guess everyone gets to judge my handiwork now!!!

So something about a rule change requires a saw taking to A&e

What is the rule change?
