Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
The overhaul is near completion and she looks great. I would like to purchase a new main and am would appreciate any input. Id rather not go with a foreign loft. I live in Mass. Thank you
Re: Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
Omar in New Bern, NC is making our sails, sewing them locally instead of outsourcing the work. We've worked with them previously and they're very good and reasonably priced.
Re: Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
Ullman Sails in Deltaville VA did mine and most of the sails around here. Most Typhoon that win the Wednesday night beer can races, at RRYC, are Ullman sails. Jerry is doing a great job and knows the boat well. I am pretty sure the last Nationals winner was using Jerry's sails. Check out 2016 Rappahannock River Yacht Club site. On the Nationals page a video of 2016 almost every boat had Ullman Sails designed by Jerry Latell of Latell sails in Deltaville. Check it out.

Re: Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
We just had our first sail with our new Mack 135 Genoa. I could not be happier. Give them a call, at least.

Re: Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
Bohndell Sailmakers in Rockport Maine made a new main sail for not much more than an offshore loft quoted. Will post pictures of it soon.
Highly recommended and a great destination for a long weekend. 207-236-3549

I've had a set of Sperry Sails and were Happy with them. In Marion Mass.
Re: Typhoon sailmaker recommendations
I concur. The sails for my Ty Weekender are from Bohndell and they've done some repairs for me. Fine people, excellent work.Maine_Buzzard wrote:Bohndell Sailmakers in Rockport Maine made a new main sail for not much more than an offshore loft quoted. Will post pictures of it soon.
