Sails
Although the battens protect the mainsail to a certain extent, do not leave the mainsail hoisted for
extended periods of time.
Raise and drop the spinnaker as smoothly as possible, as this will extend the life of the sail. Avoid
trawling the spinnaker through the water, this can damage the sail and get the spinnaker stuck
around the bow of the boat.
Remove the spinnaker from the chute after sailing; if the sail is left it can attract mice that damage
the sail.
Always dry the sail before folding and packing it away.
Always rinse the sails and the boat after sailing in salt water.
