[Public-List] planed sail purchase

[Gordon Laco]

Hi there - 

I would recommend Triton Sails, even though they are in Port Credit, Ont
near Toronto.  

The loft was founded by Joe Fernandes, who made the sails our boats were
fitted with all through the production years, and the tradition is carried
on by his son Ron.  The main and genny I have were made by Ron; the service
is great and the quality is top notch.

Which ever sail maker you use should be one who knows A30's and has respect
for more traditional yachts - which is quite rare these days particularly in
the large 'franchise' lofts.

Triton is at (905) 891-8166. info at tritonsails.com

Cheers - Gord #426 Surprise
