I need to get a new main sail this winter for the next season and was wondering if anyone has any sugestions. I only race PHRF and have only raced against one other Laser in the last 20 years so I have nothing to compair against. My last sail was a mylar-composite thing that held its shape well but is now totaly finished and I have been thinking of going back to a Dacron. Any ideas who makes the fastest one? Do people still get the second reef point my last one didn't have one and I never realy missed it ? Most of the time we race in smooth seas with winds under 15 knts. Ocassionally 2 times per season we go in a blow 30-40 with 2 - 3 meter waves.
