For an offshore quote, I have heard a lot of good things about Rolly Tasker sails. I think there is a rep on the island, it would be worth checking them out. They have their own loft, and don't source from China Sail Factory like a lot of others. Island Planet Sails contributes to some forums I read, and he has been extremely helpful and not pushy at all; also an excellent reputation. I would try him as well.
My current sails are Leitch-McBrides, and they have been excellent sails. If I was going to go local there would be no question. UK and North would probably both source out of Asia, I don't consider them local. On 29 December 2013 16:00, Jerome Tauber <jrtau...@aol.com> wrote: > Try North Direct online.
