found this stuff at the depot, Gorilla clear tape. i haven't fixed a sail yet but i patched some raingear and wore it in the woods all week. It is thicker and stickier than Tuc plus its clear!

I've used the gorilla and I've used helicopter tape. The helli tape is quite a bit better but a lot more expensive. You can use it as rail tape for boards as well.

You can get it for 30, not sure why its for 70 there. I didn't look, maybe it was the mega large roll. I went with the 2inch wide and 12 foot(i think) long roll.
Anyways, nice to use clear stuff at any rate eh.

This is the good stuff, and holds up for a long time.
