Nat:

.7 all white tri radial Sobstad ploy right before Quantum transition used very little; still crispy. Never had any problems with poly kites on e27 unlike heavy boats like J35 where tired sail's clews could rip off occasionally on hard round ups. This sail is not tired. Chute is superb in high weather conditions > 15 knots apparent. Found slow < 10 true so garaged all these years; $550.

A better heavy weather sail, certainly a year of SF summer racing left on it or bullit proof cruising sail.
