Does anyone have a mainsail for a wave that they would like to sell?
Looks like a rat or mouse ate some big holes in mine when it was stored in the garage! :(
Thanks

Man, what a bummer! :cry: I have heard of these rodent attacks, and did not take a chance. Off season I store my sail under my bed! Otherwise, it sits on an unused bed in the cottage. I don't trust storing it in my garage or shed.

Do you think it may be repairable? It may be worth bringing it to a sail loft and getting an estimate.

Keep a watch on ebay too. I recall seeing one once.

hee hee hee... Sail under the bed, that's GREAT!

Yep. I would put my entire WAVE under the bed, if I could, and the rudders under my pillow!!

Of course the wife would divorce me.

This would work; fairly inexpensive, as well:

3" or 4" PVC pipe with caps, cut to fit length of rolled up sail, inside. Keep the critters at bay.

It wouldn't need to be heavy duty. Irrigation grade should do.
