I'm not familiar with Spinnaker prices but I bought a 145 Kevlar Jib for my Swan 41 from a good loft last winter for less than 6k. The price that you've been quoted seems a bit high to me but I really can't claim to be an expert. |

Thanks for that - in the meantime, I went with the bid, because they threw some other things at me that seemed like compensation (good prices on staysail and trysail, a 'free' cleaning of my 135, which although only used 4-5 times lightly, had crap in the layers and looks like hell (boat was CA boat, and the story I got was the stuff trapped in the sail was soot from the extensive fires out there a couple years ago - whatever). But - I might well want to buy more sails moving forward, so if you would be willing to give me a recommendation on the loft you used, if you are happy with their work, it seems apples to apples that you got a much better deal - would love to have them quote future work - I surely would appreciate it. Thanks and fiar winds to Four Suns - Geoff, Corazon, Swan 411 #41 |
