New sails for CD25

Post by Evan »

Does anyone have information and/or advice about buying a new set of sails for a CD25? Mine are the original ones made in 1975 and are definitely showing their age! Thanks in advance to all, and Happy Holidays!

Evan,

I bought a set of Doyle Durasails from the loft in Marblehead. They are very well cut and reasonably priced (lower than most). I love the two full battons up top in the main. Also, the foam in the luff of the genny does help hold shape when furled. The link below will take you to the site if you'd like to take a look.

Good Luck,
Jon

Evan,
We had original 1974 sails. In 96 went to our local North Sails rep. We spent a lot of time discussing how we use the boat, wind conditions, etc. He made several suggestions. We had North make a new 140 headsail and new main. Still look and act like new. We would rec North.
Best,
dow
