Yes. The order I have in at APS includes a 25% discount on sail/numbers and battens, (works out to be quite a bit less than $ 714.00). It's a very nice discount and one I'm willing to wait for. Well, for a while at least, but I can still complain about sails not shipping!!!!
This part is a special case. It looks like it's discontinued for good, as it turned out to be not that durable (and even harmful). See thread Centreboard Friction Pad - New or Old Design? | SailingForums.com, especially post #15.I've been trying to get a Mk II Daggerboard friction pad for months and they are simply not available in the US nor the UK [friend tried to get one for me there]
How can this be possible
