Try Port Cogolin they offered me a berth last year (didn't need it in the end), there's very little out of water storage round here. You could do what I did and buy an apartment with a mooring in Port Grimaud.

Thanks everyone, lots to think about there. The original sail is North, that’s who I got to quote from in the UK, I drive to the boat so getting it there isn’t a problem. I’ll look at Kemps and see how they compare.

I need to replace the furling jib on my Hanse 312, I've had a couple of quotes but have been shocked by the prices (one in the UK and one in the SOF where the boat is based), can anyone recommend a sail maker that produces budget sails? I really dont need anything fancy, just a simple cruising...

I haven't spoken to him for a while, will find out. My Dad bought his first boat of Lars & Göran in about 1980 when they were operating out of an old petrol station on the main road between PB and Marbella, had 5 or 6 of them since then, always found them to be a great company to deal with...

Make sure you wash it off with fresh water too, mine got clogged up with salt deposits as soon as I washed it off it freed up

Excelent, thank you

Is the Navonics app accurate with just the GPS running or do you need a WIFI/3g connection as well?

Have a look at www.bristolmaritime.co.uk/career/ its run by the ex Head of Operations at UKSA, excelent set up in Bristol. No connection other than a satisfied customer (Oh and he's my cousin!)

Yes think you're right, fronts wrong for a 308

I think the cars are 308 GTB and GTS, Dad had a GTB, it was the early 80s I think
