Even better prices on working sails.
Check this out, friends. Hong Kong Sails
www.hksailmakers.com will make me the following working sails and for cheaper than Sailwarehouse. The quality appears better with two rows of reef points in the main plus insignia and sail numbers and draft stripe. I thought sails were much more expensive than this. But I guess there are so many Coronado 27s out there sailing the oceans of the world that sailmakers can mass-produce our sails and sell them for cheaper than for most boats a few of which were ever made before the design either failed or became obsolete.

Shipping is extra - I've e-mailed my address to them and they
are going to give me a shipping charge. I'll let you know but it's probably 30-40 bucks like it is for sailwarehouse coming from California. No sales tax which is a good thing. A brand new set of working sails for less than a grand is fantastic! If everything holds together and I get some good, postitive answers to questions about the make and construction of the sail slugs and foot and a quote on a slightly larger jib - 110% instead of 100% (12 foot long foot instead of 10.75') I think I'll go ahead and order. They're supposed to be shipped within 2-3 weeks from date of receipt of payment. Booby and everybody else is going to be sooooooo envious.

You might try these guys also, their labor costs are probably even lower
than HK's. The guy I used to crew for had his sails made by these folks, very inexpensive, excellent quality. http://www.rollytasker.com/ John Cairns "Simple Simon" wrote in message ...

They are actually Mac 26X sails.

thanks, I filled out their form for a mainsail. Unfortunately they have a retail outlet in Florida so I'm sure they'll want to hit me up for sales tax which is around 8% here. It'll probably negate any price difference. http://www.nationalsail.com/ I'll follow up when I hear something. S.Simon - a Captain who's serious about sailing "John Cairns" wrote in message ...
