Naish Sails delam at seams

Anyone have trouble with recent Naish Force sails pulling apart at the seams? I hear this seems to be common, at least in the last two years production line. I guess some of the seams near the window are not double stitched on both sides. So far, I haven't had a problem, but I have heard from others.

If you haven't had this problem, why would you even post this??

..because I just bought naish sails, and apprently, if you catch it, the fix is 15.00, but if not, it's like 80.00+, so I wanted to know whether or not to watch this closely, i.e., have others 'really' had a problem with this?

My family and I have been sailing on Naish Forces for a while and none of us have experienced this problem. They seem to last very well!

I know of a couple friends who have had problems with the Naish Force sails where they used different sail tape at the batten pockets because in "China" when they have run out of the good stuff, they substitute for the not so good stuff. Naish admitted to this and fixed for free.
