[quote=samc99us]Vendor issues can be problematic, Nacra has always been a little hit or miss in that regard. Rick Bliss at New England Catamarans is the man to talk to about resolving issues, he will run point and do his best to get it solved. My suggestion though is to take your old kite and new kite to a competent local sail maker and have them add the end pole patch(s) to the new kite.
As to overseas vendors, that isn't always the case. For example, I have found all my dealings with the British cat sailing community to be top notch.
On the sails, they look fantastic! Can you do me a favor and snap some photos from behind the boat of the main with reasonable breeze? Also one looking up the middle of the main from the boom? Sail needs to be sheeted on and boat placed like you are going to weather. Some quantitative analysis vs. the EP sails would also be good, are these deeper cut? Flatter? More or less responsive to downhaul?[/quote]
