Typhoon Sails

Hi Clark:

Check out The Sail Warehouse.
http://thesailwarehouse.com
Easy-to-use website, online ordering, 2-3 day delivery, competitively priced.

Rolly Tasker Sails for Typhoon Weekender in-stock:
Standard OEM-type Main $460
Standard OEM-type Jib $205

I'm assuming the Typhoon Daysailor will use the same sails.
I bought a jib from them this summer. Very pleased with construction, materials, service, and price. A local sail loft may charge twice this amount.

Best,
P-

Daysailor sails,

Clark,

The sails on my daysailor are in good condition, but will be interested in what you learn about where to have them replaced. After taking the boat out of the water in the next week or two, I plan to and send them to SailCare for cleaning, etc.

BTW, thanks for your advice in your earlier post on sailing in the Apostles. At the time, I didn't realize you had a daysailor, which gives me even more confidence that this boat will handle island sailing nicely. Last summer we spent several days there, including nights at Stockton, Manitou and Madeline. My wife had a nice swim on Stockton while our son and I took in the evening ranger presentation on bears. I didn't realize that the island is thought to have the largest concentration of brown bears of anywhere in North America.

Note the sails for the different Typhoons are different. I would suggest checking with several sailmakers close to you. It would be good if he can actually measure the boat, I would not let him simply work from a sail plan unless you (and he) verify that it is for the Daysailor. The data below is from Bacon and Associates in Annapolis and is included just to give key dimensions.
