Sails measurement

Post by clarivoile »

I'm looking for all the measurement required to get new sails, genaker, code 0 for the 920 Extreme. Quorning sent me to Elvstrom who doesn't want to give anything if he doesn't make the sails....

Anybody has them?

Thank you

Elvstrom is a good source. However, if you want to use another sail maker I suggest you have them measure the boat. It is part of the service (I have never heard of a sail maker charging extra for this) and it assures you that they will be completely responsible for the result.

They will not be able to claim you provided wrong measurements if it doesn't fit right. If they can't or won't come to the boat don't use them. That's my best advice.

Contact Gransegeln / Mats Johansson. He has DF920X and they make fast and good sails in Sweden.

I sent him a quotation request, I'll see. But I'm afraid the price would be very high, compare to here.
