Title: Leads on sources for used sails?
Post by: gever on Sep 17, 2024, 04:36 PM
My sails are fairly beat up and the main is missing most of the battens. I've got a quote from Precision Sails for a fresh set that is actually more reasonable than I expected, but I'm wondering if I can find some that are just "better than what I have".

Let me know if you have leads on where to find a selection of Potter 19 sails.

From my list just in case I needed a new sail.

Have you considered sewing your own sail from a kit? I've sewn two from Sailrite kits with just a tabletop home sewing machine. The last was a 105 sqft mainsail.
