Important note about production times Due to a nationwide shortage of Sunbrella fabric, most orders will be delayed beyond the dates shown. Our production queue is now completely dependent on which fabric colors we receive, so you could get lucky with a quick turnaround but most orders have to wait for fabric. Limited availability -- we'll get more but we can't say when
Discontinued colors that are unavailable and aren't coming back:
Currently, Sunbrella shipments arrive without warning and fail to arrive without notice. But it will arrive, we just don't know when. We recommend ordering now so you have a place in line. We authorize your card upon purchase but that expires in a week and we don't collect payment until the product ships. You can cancel any time until fabrication begins. Thank you for your patience during this challenging time. |
What is a flaking system? Flaking systems are lines of various types that cradle and control your main sail when you drop it, making it easier to drape and store.
Dutchman systems have two or three vertical filaments that are installed through small holes cut in the sail.
Lazy Jacks form a cradle and install on both sides of the boom, using four to eight cut outs (2-4 on each side). Please note that cutouts are NOT counted in pairs. Count the total number of coutouts needed in your cover for all Lazy Jack lines.
Both types of flaking systems require cut outs in the sail cover
