i love the Dutchman sail. went one season without.

We love the flaking system. Makes it so easy to lower and keep it neat and in shape.

Do you like the Dutchman system better that lazy jacks? Have you had any issues with tears around the holes for the Dutchman system and what is the worst weather you have been in? Fair winds!

[@knotvanilla7808]

We havent had lazy Jack's on our boat before. But... we like it compared to other boat we have been on that have them. We did have some wear from it that was fixed and upgraded when we got the sail reconditioned. Most winds we have been in with them was clocking about 25knts.
