Paul Dugard took on a mission of resurrection for me.
Zen (#2 R/W/B) has seen Eliot Shook for repairs previously (too embarrassed to engage him again!) so my flying partner spent a few nights pulling stitches and replacing panels, saved my ole mylar backed nylon leading edge though HA! Bitched about stuck together stuff with crazy glue, sail-tape (he HATES that stuff) and nail polish, End-caps temporarily held in place with zip-ties (which have sharp edges and slice the sail when stored tightly).
New panels will not match the old ones, but who cares!
I'm excited to see the dead raised-up from the tomb.
I've no idea what this mission will cost, he's only said "less than a mortgage pymt" in jest
Add some knot covers, tighten the attachment points, new French bridle ready to install, sissy sticks and LEDs
IT LIVES!
