Gunter Rigger Main

[Forbsie]

Does anyone have any ideas where I may aquire a Gunter rigger mainsail in reasonable nick but very cheaply? Minimum size 17' x 12' (max 21'x15')

While I'm on the subject, does anyone know if Ratsey & Lapthorn have a website?

Ratsey and Lapthorn

Think they are still a separate brand, but they are now a subsidiary of Banks Sails.

I have an old terylene gaff sail, it may do what you want.

Foot 13' 3", Luff 20' (10' on boom, 10' on gaff) it has one set of reefing eyes and is in sound condition, no patches and very slight staining.

I have some photos,could email them to you. I can't find the batons.

Any use?

Iain

Re: Ratsey and Lapthorn

Thanks James. That explains a lot.

I have got a 1949 jib from them that is practically immaculate and thought that may be of interest to them.

That could be ideal, Iain.

I've sent you a pm.
