You can call or email us for help with the shipping arrangements to our facilities. We will evaluate your sail for the current cash price for us to purchase it or consignment price for resale – you have options with our used sail brokerage, contact us for clarification. Our used sail inventory is accessible by our custom Sail Search Tool on this website for the world to view and purchase.
Please note, all sails delivered to us must have a minimum usable rating condition. To learn more about our used sails rating system, click on Sail Condition Rating Table page on this website. We reserve the right to select used sails based on our discretion to purchase for us to resell, consign, donate or reject. Sails we reject fail to meet our standards. For those customers that would like the rejected sail returned to them, they must pay the return shipping and handling fees or pick-up the sail at our facilities within 15 days.
We also accept donations on behalf of MORC (Midget Ocean Racing Conference) for a 501 (3) © tax deduction certificate.
