.2 Sails shall be of single-ply woven sailcloth material which excludes laminated mylar-type material, except for Genoa #1 which, if made of mylar, shall conform to 5.12.5 and Genoa #3 which is not restricted.
Please clarify for me as this is somewhat unclear for my thick head:
Main: Only dacron is legal. No pentex mains. No NuClear mylar with strings mains.
#1: Dacron OK, and mylar. What about mylar / kevlar? Is pentex legal ? Quantum Fusion ?
#3; unlimited means carbon & cuben fiber even is legal
Spinn:
.1 Minimum cloth weight is 0.75oz. nominal and 0.9oz. actual weight. Spinnakers must be made of nylon.

Is there a non-nylon sailcloth ? Between old school nylon, more recent polyesters and AirX nylon, that about covers the market, doesn't it ? IOW, is there a way to go wrong with spinn cloth ?
Thanks.
