Fans!
Michael:
I don't know if the size
is comparable, but I have a NuClear Mylar racing main I took off my SJ24 (I
purchased a new longer boom and a new Quantum main sail). It's in pretty
good shape. You (or anyone else on this board) can have it for the price
of shipping; I need to get it out of my garage.

My name is Michael Dow, and I share an SJ 23 with
my parents on the Chesapeake Bay. We currently keep "Pogo" at the Shady Side
Marina in Shady Side, MD. We sail mainly in the West River, with occasional
forays to Annapolis, the Chester River, the Magothy River, Cambridge, Easton,
and St. Michaels. We bought pogo in (I think) 1980, and I'll be honest and say
that I'm not exactly sure what year she is, but I think either '74 or '76.
Don't know the hull number either, but I know the sail number is 159. We
currently have a Sailmaster 8.0 for crosswind moorings ;)
We are looking for a replacement mainsail, as the
originial has finally succumbed. We had a hard, semi-controlled jibe last
season which ripped the main in two right in the middle. Any advice on a good
sailmaker in MD or VA would be greatly appreciated.
We are also considering buying a trailer, so any
advice along those lines would be great as well.
Thanks very much, and I look forward to participating in this
forum.
Fair skies & following winds...
