What is the rolled up length and diameter of a Getaway sail?

What is the material it is made of?

Cheers

Alan

About 14" diameter tightly rolled.

The material is 5.6 oz Dacron.

I'd have to say the diameter of the Getaway mainsail is somewhat smaller than 14" when tightly rolled--maybe more like 10". My sail tube is a 9' x 12" PVC pipe and easily accomodates the sail in its bag, the rudders, tiller bar, two hiking sticks, and two paddles.

Cheers,

Steve
