6) Sail Care:
- Creasing damages the sail cloth.
Avoid creasing your sail when rigging
and de-rigging.
- Sunlight kills all sail cloth. Keep your
sail out of the sun when not sailing.
- Don’t rig on sharp objects.
- After rolling the sail, tuck the pad so
it rests along the sail, wrap the tack
strap around the pad and the sail, then
attach the velcro (fig. 9).
- Insert your sail sleeve-end first into
the sail bag (fig. 10).
- Never store your sail upright resting
on the clew.
- Don’t roll your sail when it is wet with
fresh water. This will cause the
window vinyl to turn hazy blue. Allow
your sail dry thoroughly for the vinyl to
clear up.
7) Troubleshooting:
> I am using the correct Ezzy mast
combination, but my mast is
3.0mm longer than the lengths
listed on your chart, what should I
do?
a) Remove the downhaul gauge from
the sail and re-attach it 3.0mm lower.
> My Ezzy mast is 3.0mm shorter
than the lengths listed on your
chart, what should I do?
a) Move the downhaul gauge up by
3.0mm.
> My sail has too much back-hand
pressure.
a) Apply more outhaul.
b) Reduce downhaul.
