The JPEG's are good, but the logo on the sail has gotta change That's the "new" Pearson logo, not the original Commander logo. Check out the Commander flyer posts. (Use the search button at the top of the page. Good for other questions before posting.)

SAILS ARE 2 YEARS OLD AND ABOUT 3 THOUSAND DOLLARS
LOGO WILL HAVE TO STAY TILL SAILS FALL OFF THE MAST

ICEMAN

[george copeland]

I'm too late to get new sails like yours. Just spent a big lump of cash on Neil Pryde, charter-grade cruising sails. Put'em on last month, as a matter of fact. Oh, well, I'm going to re-gelcoat the decks and cabin top later this year, anyway. That should make me feel better.

[iceman]

AT LEAST THEY ARE NEW
SO MANY OF US WAIT TILL WE CAN SEE THRU THE DACRON BEFORE UPGRADING..SAILS ARE OUR ENGINE..AND THYE DO LAST A LONG TIME

HELL ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 5.0 KNOTS AND 5.5 KNOTS

TELL THE WIFE YOU ARE GOING TO GET A NEW SPINNAKER SOON THAT WILL OPEN UP SOME NEW DISCUSSION

Spinnaker--the word makes The Nearly Perfect Wife break out with hives. Earlier, I had her hoist that dangerous rag while on a run in 12 knot winds. Bad move. Nearly managed to experience a broach. Now TNPW is a little skittish.
