Hi,
Was wondering if I could get some advice about whether or not to get a new sail for a regatta that's comming up.
I'm not bad but by no means world class... I was given a standard sail that looks like it's in good condition, and probably has about 8-10 regattas on it... it's dated 2006, looks clean, relatively crispy, kept rolled and has no creases.
I'll be racing against some of the top sailors in the region, and although "realistically" I don't think I'll win, I'm not trying to come last either. Wind can be anywhere between 5-15, but the average is 12.
Will a new sail make a big difference?
Appreciate any thoughts.
Thanks
