Is anyone using FusionX from Quantum? It is priced the same as Dacron and quantum rep promises to be more durable and lighter than Dacron?

:: Just one more vote for Dave / Will and Santa Cruz sails.

:: :: :: so I can compare

:: :: :: :: I believe Quantum, Santa Cruz Sails, UK, and Pineapple
:: :: :: :: make most of the Express 27 sails that are used on the
:: :: :: :: Bay. There are competitive boats using sails from each

:: :: :: :: provide, 3) price.
:: :: :: ::
:: :: :: :: Personally there is one other factor I consider, and

:: :: :: :: from the loft) have of supporting the fleet.

:: :: :: :: I don't think you get enough extra mileage out of a
:: :: :: :: Kevlar main to justify the higher price, but maybe
:: :: :: :: others can comment on their experience in that regard
:: :: :: :: (as we've always just gone with Dacron).

:: :: :: :: :: main? Anyone delt with Don T. from Quantum?
