I need to replace my spinnaker retrieval sock. its the all mesh (I assume original) one and has a bunch of tears in it. What is the latest and greatest place to acquire a new one? I tried my north sails rep but they are out of cuben cloth and may not be able to make any before worlds.

If North can't make one, call Brad Boston at Doyle Boston - they also make socks and have made the one we use on 269.

I called for months to get my spin sock from a number of sail lofts without much luck.  I tried Eric Doyle at the North San Diego loft.  He was responsive and got me new sails and a spin sock in days.  Although, I have been friends with Eric for decades which might have helped. good luck!
