Re: Stus-List Used Sails sources recommendations
Francois, Bacon is the "go to" place for used sails around here. Good square deals. It definitely sounds like you could use a good working jib.

Since those higher winds days are rather infrequent on the lake I don't really want to spend a lot of money on a new working jib. (Although I might get a new 135) Do you guys have recommendations for good sources on used sails? I would think a 10oz heavy Dacron 100 of some description would do fine. I'm told that Bacon sails in Annapolis is a great place to start, any other suggestions? -Francois Rivard 1990 34+ "Take Five" Lake Lanier, GA ___ Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go to the bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com
