Sorry, the columns got garbled; price for the Main (2 reef points, 1 full
length batten), after discount is $1,293.  The deal does require you have a
trade in sail (who doesn't have at least 5 old sails taking up room in the
attic).  I got a quote from HK (Hong Kong) Sails that was MUCH lower.
Cullen at North said the main difference is quality of the yarn they (HK)
use which stretches more and, therefore, reduces the useful life of the
sail.  Maybe it is just their hype, but I have always thought of North as
the gold standard for sails.

Ps- do you really have 2-A30s?  I can't keep up with just 1!
