Thank you very much Alexandre.

Doug, that's exactly it.

J'ai acheté ce tissu dans un magasin français "Mondial Tissu"
la référence est 3256 Doublure 280.
je me suis trompé c'est 77% polyester et 23% coton.
Je pense que tu pourras trouver par chez toi un marchand de tissu.

Hi Alexandre, thanks for the very precise answer.
What is the commercial name of this fabric?
Did you buy it in a shop and on the internet?
Do you have a link?

For the rest of us ... 😉 Hope it's about right! Doug😎
"Hello Alessandro,
First of all, I want to thank you for your compliments, it always makes me happy.
As for the sails, they are made of a fabric made of 60% polyester and 40% cotton. Thus, if they take on water, they dry faster and leave fewer marks on the fabric
For the record, I had never done sewing in my life, it was a great experience."

Bonjour Alessandro,
Tout d'abord, je souhaite te remercier pour tes compliments, cela me fait toujours plaisir.
En ce qui concerne les voiles, elles sont faites d'un tissu composé à 60 % de polyester et à 40 % de coton. Ainsi, si elles prennent l'eau, elles sèchent plus rapidement et laissent moins de traces sur le tissu
Pour info, je n'avais jamais fait de couture de ma vie, ce fut une belle expérience.

It is a huge, gigantic Cutter.
Very beautiful both in static display and underway.
The (sailing) navigation is a complete success, congratulations.

What fabric did you use for the sails? Can you also write it in French?

Will do. (Assuming it doesn't turn out to be a total disaster!)

Great, when you build it, I hope you'll post some pictures on this forum.

Hello Alexandre,
and thank you for the information. I have ordered the plan.

John
