About Sail Care
I just received six sails back from Sail Care, a sail reconditioning outfit
in Ford City, PA. I do not normally endorse vendors, but these people did such a fine job restoring and rebuilding my sails, and at a very affordable price, that I felt I should mention them. If you have some old sails in need of help, or simply want them to look bright and shiny again, contact them at www.sailcare.com or call at 800-433-7245. Bob Swarts |

Bob Swarts Yes, I've heard other positive reviews about Sailcare and only one comment that the money would have been better spent on new sails. I'd have used them but was concerned about the turnaround time. Down here in Central Texas we sail most year around so I'd hate to be without sails for a long time and Sailcare won't take reservations or guarantee a return time. How long did yours take? |

About Sail Care
Mine took about two months including some fairly extensive repairs to one of
the mains. But I did not plan to sail this winter and emphasized that time was NOT of the essence. I can also vouch for Commodore Joe's comments that they are nice people to deal with, and that a simple telephone call gets you right to the man you need to talk to. BS wrote in message ...

About Sail Care
Just sent my sails to SailCare last week to take advantage of discount.
New sailor, 1988 Catalina 22, probably original sails in not too bad condition. I'll let you know cost to have them returned. I am in PA, so we won't have it in water until March/April at least.
