    Question

    I am looking for a set of sail for my gaff rig. I was trying to contact Sailrite, but I am unable to get through from Canada. The web site doesn't seem to be allowing quotes to go through. Does any have any experience with their sails? Or any other places to find inexpensive sails?

    Thanks

    I asked them to give me a quote for a sail kit for Iain Oughtred's Fulmar. Just sent them the information via email to sailrite@sailrite.com. Not only did I get the quote but the sail kit was ready for purchase in very short order... a lot sooner than I needed it.

    Last I heard, Sailrite only sells kits. I've made a few. They are well laid out and everything you need is provided. Professionally made sails range widely in price but a sailrite kit might be about 1/2 to a 1/3 the price of a ready made. They give excellent support but a phone connection helps.

    I have their current catalog. They do sell some finished sails for popular boats in addition to their kits for many others. Their toll free number is 1 800 348-2769. They were very helpful when I called them once.
