From the advice given, re-cutting an old sail is not a good idea.
Bacon has quoted $1,495 and Ullman $2,364. Apparently sailmakers have
the class specs in their computers, but do I need to tell them cloth
weight, cloth maker, draft, draft placement, foot length, and other
specifications?
I am 78 years old and will be cruising purely on Chesapeake Bay in
moderate conditions, at least as far as I can predict, but would like
longevity -
My old sail has modest length battens and two rows of reef points
(which I rarely use.)
Any recommendations?
