Sails

Post by sauerleigh »

Does anyone know might have made the sails for Chrysler? I finally unfurled the main from the Maudie Kay and it was made by Obstad and it looks to be in great shape for a sail from the late seventies, my guess is that it is a replacement.

Has anyone used Sail Care for cleaning and repairs?

Have not used them myself, but recall reading a post or two giving them a good report, can't recall by whom.
