[quote=klozhald][quote=ctcataman]If it is the bolt rope expansion that's the culprit, I guess there really isn't a fix.[/quote]
If the luff of the sail is in good shape, you can change out the bolt rope yourself.
Cut the sewing from both ends of the bolt rope.
Sew the new rope end to the old one.
Stretch the sail taut from the head plate and the downhaul grommet.
(I use trees in my back yard, and the mainsheet blocks to do this)
Pull the new into place, and cut off the old part..
The sew the new bolt rope in place like the old one was.
Three strand twisted nylon works best as a replacement.[/quote]
