PATHETIC!!! | | ... maybe you were trying for a low cost rigging switch to a "Chinese Junk" | | CM | | "Simple Simon" wrote in message | ... | | Honk Kong Sails made mine. They have a website: | | http://www.netfun.com/cgi-bin/hksail/ | | Check them out. They are the best priced sails | | by far with standard features like double row of | | reef points, sail insignia and numbers tell tales, | | etc. that others charge extra for. I got a main | | and working jib for a little over a grand including | | shipping. | | | | From looking at the sails that just arrived yesterday | | I'd say the quality and workmanship is excellent. | | I managed to get the old mainsail off and the new | | one bent on but a big thunderstorm came up and | | I had to put the cover on the sail even before getting | | the battens in yesterday evening. Maybe if the | | weather holds I'll get some sailing in today and | | take some pics to post on a webpage at my | | site. | | | | Good luck. | | | | S.Simon | | | | | | "Brian McAloon" wrote in message | . .. | | Hi Simon, | | What kind of sails did you get and was it a good deal? | I'm | | currently looking around for new sails for my 28. Thanks for any help. | | Brian McAloon | | S/V CLIODHNA M28 OI | | Pompano Beach, Florida. | | | | "Simple Simon" wrote in message | | ... | | Dear Group, | | | | I managed to nurse my new sails through customs and have word | | from FED EX tracking that the sails are on the delivery truck which | | left from Marathon (forty miles south of here) at a little after nine | | this morning. I should have the sails in my grubby little hands later | | on this afternoon. | | | | Boy are you gonna be jealous when you get a load of how well the | | new sails set and how shiny new they look. No more critics allowed | | like the last time I showed pics of worn-out sails. There will be | nothing | | to criticize. | | | | Look for a link to a new webpage showing actual sailing pictures with | | new working sails in a week or two. | | | | S.Simon - constantly improving his fine blue water yacht | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
