Javier What did Steve Hogin charge you for your sails? Tom Fun Zone

:: Pei,
::
:: For what it's worth when I bought my boat the numbers on
:: the sail were the same as on the hull, i.e. 727. And
:: that's what I had put on my new sails. And if it helps,
:: my hull # is located on the starboard transom. BTW, I
:: checked out the sail warehouse but they insist you
:: measure. I didn't want to risk mis-measuring so I
:: figured for a few extra bucks I'd have Steve Hogin cut
:: me a new set. He's reasonable, accessible and had an
:: excellent turn-around time.
::
:: Javier
::
:: :: I found this place on the web
:: :: http://thesailwarehouse.com that sells sails at a good
:: :: price. Any experience with this outfit?
:: ::
:: :: Anyway, if I want to get the new sails race-legal, my
:: :: understanding is that I should put the "S" insignia and
:: :: sail number on the mainsail (both sides).
:: ::
:: :: Is the sail number the same as the hull number?
:: ::
:: :: Also, I couldn't find any hull number painted and/or
:: :: etched anywhere on the boat. I think previous owners had
:: :: painted it over, scraped it off, who knows what.
:: ::
:: :: The hull number on record with DMV is "523" (year 1970).
:: :: Is that the number I should put on the mainsail?
:: ::
:: :: thx
