Re: Flotation pad for sail pocket


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi John,

Alternatively, I may need to replace it with some sort of closed cell foam sheet. It would need to be buoyant (obviously) and not absorb water, rigid enough to be self-supporting, flexible enough to curve and flex with the sail and durable enough to last another 20 years. Any thoughts?

I've always found sleeping mats (Karrimat etc) get adapted to this kind of use. Downside is the colour might show through the sail. But otherwise tough, waterproof, cheap and readily available.

Cheers

Martin
