Not only do the Dacron mains hold their shape longer they do not shrink like
the laminate sails do. I sailed my Dacron Main in the SOCKS Regatta 1 week
before the 1998 Nationals and had 30 knots all day. We then went out and
tied for first in the Nationals, we then did Whidbey Island Race week where
we had 2 days of 20-25 out of the 5 and came in Second just 1 point out of
first. The last race of that regatta we were over early and sailed through
16 boats to come in second. This is all with the same main.
