USED SAIL RATINGS:
When purchasing a used sail…
- Expect to spend a fraction of the cost of a custom new sail.
- Expect convenience, as all of our sails are in stock and will usually ship same day.
- Expect quality to be a direct function of price.
- Expect to compromise when looking for a used sail. You are purchasing a sail that wasn’t custom built for you. Alterations such as changes in hardware cut-downs, adding suncover or full length battens are all part of our in-house service.
