I don't think you'll ever notice any stretch in that little window nor
will you feel the pea under your mattress. I've been sailing the
entire Ezzy line for about 8 years and have loved every one of them.
There were three of us out today on SE Waves (all have that same vinyl
window) and all three were bright orange by coincidence. People
probably thought we were a team of some sort.
Drop an e-mail to David Ezzy if you're curious. They are wonderful
sails. I've got the 2008 Freeride in 6.5 and I love it after sailing
Infinities for so long. There are lots of great sails out there by
lots of manufacturers these days. This is just one of them.
