mainsail for 28 cape dory?

Post by kevin oconnor »

well in this lite air place, (biloxi/gulfport) blew out the mainsail and need to find a replacement. Any one have a used, but good sail they could part with? also, the owner of a Hunter, (I know)told me of some place that re-glass/recondition/his mainsail and when I went aboard, (I know) and looked at the sail, it had a odd smell, but looked NEW. now the hard part, any help, with what works best, and a what kind of price others have paid for replacement would help greatly.thanks Kev. S/V Laura Ps; no real put down about Hunters, there just more boat for the money, right?

You might try a company called The Sail Warehouse out of California. They do work with used sails, but, I have found that their new sails are great and just about the cheapest out there.

So far, I have purchased a 110, 150 furler, a main and sailcover for a Catalina 25 and a main and genoa for an Oday 19.

To show you how they care, one of the folks with a Catalina 25 called them and ordered a sail-they sent him a loaner to use until his new one arrived!

Phone number is 1 800 495 7245

How handy are you?
Sailrite makes a kit for the 28 mainsail for less than 700 bucks.
