Being the cheap SOB that I am, I had Bacon Sails make me new sails. They use the Quantum loft without the markup for the green label. You do have to measure yourself. The Office has a hydranet radial main. Matt might comment on how it is holding up. Atlantis has cross-cut dacron sails that are

Yes I concur Doyle sails are very good. A few years after I got Alianna, I got a 135 RF head sail, tuff luff, cross cut 8 oz dacron, draft stripes, ticklers, and sail numbers. The main was also 8 oz, cross cut dacron, 4 battens in pockets secured with velcro internal straps, draft stripes, loose

Good Morning, I was hoping to get the group's thoughts on new sails for For Play. I have received quotes from Precision, UK, North Sails and Sobstad. Precision is the cheapest followed by Sobstad, I'm leaning towards Sobstad because they make the sails here not in a foreign country and they are
