Merrily

I rigged the 4.7 sail, and it turns out that the nylon strip across the top of the sleeve, the bit that keeps the sail from sliding down the mast, has rotted right through. It needs to be replaced. I have a sailor's sewing palm and a bit of skill with a needle and thread. Is this repair something that a novice can do, or should I not try this at home? I have some thread from the marine store.
Fortunately, the rest of the sail looks fine.
