Just wondering what is the best tape for patching a repair in the light spinnaker material at the front of my 2025 unit? Originally I used PSP SPINNAKER REPAIR TAPE, but it has let go after about 12 months. Do I use it again but with 2 overlapping strips or use Gorilla waterproof tape or .?
Cheers.

I've been using the M2 ripstop tape, and I think it's actually better than the PSP tape.

Incom, LifeSafe Sail Repair Tape. The stuff is insane. I don't think I'll ever pay for a professional canopy repair again. Used it to repair my 2m strike that had 30+ pinholes after dragging across the parking lot. Taped it up and went back out in 40-50 knots no issues. Also fixed my Pocket Rocket and reinforced the laser cut edges with it. Took that thing out in 40-50 knots as well, no issues.

Clean and dry with Cleaning Alcohol/isopropanol. Clear Gorilla Tape, round off points, press on hard both sides. Used loads :-(.
