Wanted E27 Main Sail

Anybody have suggestions on replacing an E27 main for the SF Bay area? While sailing last night, we noticed a hole developing around one of our battens. I know... with Katrina and Bagdad tragedy stories filling the papers, this sad tale pales in comparison.

However, because our wives anger easily when the unexpected sailing expense arises, my partner and I have sworn a VOP (vow of poverty.) I've heard that the J24 main has roughly the same dimensions. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ken Wimberley

I happen to have two E-27 mains for sale.

I happen to have two E-27 mains for sale. One is a old 6oz North that has a few patches and is a bit blown out but still works for $25. The other is a 5oz and a bit newer that is in great shape for $100. I will have to wait to sell you the newer sail, until after I receive the new one I am having made. That should be around the 15th of September.
