Sailor James and John Conway of @SVFelurian Talk about His New Rolly Tasker Sails
Hello Friends,
On this episode I sit down with John Conway of @SVFelurian to talk about his new Rolly Tasker Sails.
here is the info John sent me about his sails:
"My sails are from the Roly Tasker “Performance Sails” Family. I went with the CDX PRO Laminate, which is the cruising laminate made by Contender Sailcloth. This fabric is assembled in a tri-radial pattern for both main and headsails. I chose the “Cool Grey” color option over plain white. My Main has 5 full battens, 6 intermediate slides and an aluminum headboard. Custom upgraded to webbing loops for Tides Marine strong track slides, two point single line reefing with low friction rings. My headsail is a 135% roller furling 135% Genoa with upgraded features of foam luff, tell tale window and sewn on Sunbrella UV cover to match my boat canvas."
Direct from their website, here is the “Standard Features” of the performance cdx pro
• Individual sail design
• Polyester Cruising Laminate CDX Pro by Contender Sailcloth, white or cool grey
• Seams triple stitch with UV stabilised thread
• Stainless steel rings reinforced with webbing
• Strong radial patches
• Strong batten pockets with velcro lock or tie in type
• Mainsails are constructed with alloy headboards
• luff hardware is shackled on
• webbed on luff hardware
• Low stretch leech line with clam cleat
• Two draft stripes for visual reference of sail shape
• Full rows of tell-tales
• XL sail bag including sail tie, long bags as option
Here is their description of what CDX PRO cloth is.
The CDX Pro range of fabrics is designed around a variety of sub-assemblies with different weights of taffetas and a 500 denier polyester cross-ply. A polyester insertion is added to these assemblies to create a complementary range of modern sail laminates increasing in weight and strength.
Sails made from CDX Pro Laminate can be delivered either in cool grey or traditional white.
