Bob,
Weren't you on the last BOG call? That is what I'm referring to visavis RJ; a specific question, a specific response.
In fact, Pentex is currently a legal mainsail cloth, in contradiction of my earlier claim!
The best place to database the approximate weight of J/30 sails would be the class. At this stage the information is all over the map. There are however some dacron mains and some composite mains which are of a comparable weight as reported on the forums.
The bagweight idea is from RJ by the way. This is what the new J/111 class has adopted; perhaps other classes have used this language as well. Velcro lead cheater pockets? A class should be able to easily take care of that one. The intent is indeed to prevent an ultralight sail such as cuben fibre, or perhaps a second generation of such.
