NSX-R "Style" Shift Boot

[Jeff@Carbon6]

I was doing some research to find some shade sail material for my back padio and I found this company out of Germany that make custom sails for competition boats. The have this material that looks very similar to the "R" style shift boot materal. It took me almost 4 weeks to get a small amount of material but it came late last week. I stiched up a boot to see how it would look. I had some nice grommets to finish it off.

What do you think?

I guess I don't understand what your asking.

I guess I don't understand what your asking.

Sailing term - refers to when a sailing vessel is steered far enough to windward, or the sheet controlling a sail is eased so far past optimal trim, that the sail is no longer completely filled by the wind (the luff of the sail is usually where this first becomes evident). This is not always done in error; for example, the sails will luff when the bow of the boat passes through the direction of the wind as the sailboat is tacked.
