New Sails?

New Sails?
April 29, 2008 08:16PM
Hi All,

Mice got to my main sail this winter, made a nice nest I guess.

I am looking into having a new sail made, and thought it might be cost effective to have more than one made. Anybody interested?

Drop me a line.

Update. I found a sailmaker in Fl with patterns who will give us a 10% discount if we order 10 sets. The normal price is $234 jib and $608 main. He'll do a set for $750.
[www.supersailmakers.com]

Update #2 Sailrite has the patterns also. They do kits for home sewing machines or will sew it for you.
Main Kit is $242.40, finished sail is $463.94
Jib Kit is $160.23, finished is $298.28

If you order the jib from Supersailmakers and the Main from Sailrite and the pair is under $700. Great new life for our old boats.

I've been thinking about replacing my main sail, but haven't acted on it as yet. Any chance they will discount for 5 orders instead of 10?

When I looked around three or four years ago, I found an outfit in Pensacola that quoted $575 for a new main.
