Sails for Sail

1. A 150% genny with hanks. 3.5 oz dacron for tall rig C25. Good shape overall with some stretching at the clew corner. It's a nice sail in 5 to 10 knots of breeze. $350

2. A 135% genny with hanks. 5 oz dacron for standard rig C25. Fair shape overall. Sails well in 10 to 20 knots of breeze. $200

Bill - Do you know if the Hank-on can be converted to a roller-type? Would it be worth it, I don't need UV as I have a sock.

Hi Brian and Lucky Duck
Both sails could be converted to furler configurations... but, I think that a sailmaker would be the best solution for that - unless you have those skills already.

Ping me with an email if you want one or both sails.

Thanks Bill, I'll let Lucky have it if he can use it as a hank-on. I'll probably swing for a new one in a few months instead.

Regards,

I just checked, and Sailrite has free instructions on their website, describing how a DIYer can convert a hanked-on sail to roller furling. The instructions also tell how to add a sacrificial UV strip to the sail, to protect it. You would need access to a very heavy duty sewing machine, like Sailrite's machine, to do it. If you expect to sail for a long time, and enjoy doing things yourself, it's worth the investment. If not, you should have it done by a sailmaker. I recently bought a Sailrite machine, and wish I had done so years ago.
