cleaning sail

[blt2ski]

Scove,

Thanks for answering the where too!

I actually answered tom via pm too. I needed to get ahold of the person that sent me the info, took about a day. I should probably have posted the answer here, as I should have known there were others besides him looking for the answer!

a couple of thought here.

1) lofts will often quote for cleaning and general check over/minor repairs and cleaning. the value of a loft cleaning your sails is that they can check some potential stitching issues - and restitch where needed - this will extend the life of your sails.

2) the comments re sailcare - i have researched this for a while - there appears to be a mixed feeling on their re-resining processes. specifically, if you sails are somewhat blown out - re-resining does not make sense as it won't flatten your sail. if your saile are in near perfect shape, then the re-resining process may keep it that way for a while.

3) keep the economy humming and provide your local loft with some work.
