[Healeys] Tape

[Richard Collins]

Might try Defender Industries for sail "rip stop" tape. Comes in a variety of colors. I use it on sails in big breezes offshore without issue. Put on both sides if possible. Any sail loft near you can give you a piece or maybe even see it together

A friend recommended sail tape, but our local marine supply has shut down (possibly due to the drought).  The same friend also suggested 'Gorilla Tape,' but I've found their claims for their glues to be exaggerated.
