Re: Jordan Series Drogue

Hi,

That is not a Jordan Series Drogue, it may be a series drogue constructed to Don Jordan's specs.
The cones' construction and sewing are crude, but may be strong enough.

Jordan Series Drogue is a trademarked term , March 2010, describing the series drogues as designed and built by Ace Sailmakers.
Ace Sailmakers named our product after the late Don Jordan.

Don personally reviewed our product and specs. I met with him many times. He did all design and consulting work free of charge. He also paid for web site development and hosting, his family continues to do so. All "to help sailors."

Thank you,
Dave Pelissier Ace Sailmakers East Lyme, CT 06333. 860 739 5999
