No UV strip on my jib so a sock the only option at present, had it made with a zip down one side so i pull it up with spin halyard and zip it closed as it goes up. It keeps the rain, dirt and flies out as well.
If the boat was kept on a mooring the UV strip would have its benefits in that standing on the foredeck feeding the sock, zipping and hauling it up would be a little precarious in a blow.
