I have no connection to this company other than being a very satisfied customer.

[url="http://www.sailcare.com/"]Sailcare[/url] is having their annual fall savings event. So, if you're thinking about having your sails cleaned and re-conditioned, this is the time

I spent around $350-$400 for my main including sewing the numbers and logo, new slugs and a few minor repairs and shipping. The best thing to do is call them. They'll suggest that you send them the sail, They'll examine it and give you an estimate. They'll also tell if they think its time to buy a new sail. The rule of thumb is that if the repair/reconditioning is more than half the cost of a new sail, then a new sail is probably in order.

For the main and 155 genoa, you'll be spending approx. $350-450 for basic cleaning. If repairs, new telltales, etc. are recommended, the cost will be more. five years ago, cleaning my 150 genoa and new telltales was about $210.
