[quote=windadict]"When the sail is furled, the protective cloth prevents the sail from the degrading due to UV light. On beach cats, Murrays sells the snorkel to do the same thing. In EdChris's case, it makes sense, since his boat is stored mast up all the time with the jib on. Less of a hassle than the snorkel or removing the jib. Others are happy to simply remove the jib each time.[/quote]
So what is more beneficial, the snorkel or UV protective strip? Price wise is the same cost, so what are other pros and cons? I keep my boat on the beach for entire summer, mast up. This year I am converting to furling jib and worry about mildew, sand, sun etc.[/quote]
