Sail laundry/repair at Burnham?

[ChattingLil]

I haven't been able to get hold of Cindy - does anyone know if Wilkinsons still have a loft at Burnham?
If not them, then who else is recommended for my headsails? Near Crouch please.

Mick is still doing some work but I don't think he still has the sail loft. You could try http://www.lontonandgray.com/services No experience personally.

I had mine cleaned by Ocean Gowen (part of Dolphin) http://www.dolphinsails.com/advice/sail-care/ They offer a collection and drop off at Bradwell and perhaps at Burnham too.

thanks Roger. I was hoping to find somewhere to drop them off MOB weekend. I think I'm still going with Karen from Burnham.

You could try Sam, the East Coast Elvstrom guy, based in Mersea, very flexible and fantastic customer service - no connection, just satisfied customer. 07703 565 749
He may well collect etc

He only launders sails in the winter when he hires a commercial washing machine! Not good for your sails.

Lonton & Gray sailmakers. Based on Springfield Trading estate Burnham- as you come in on the Burnham Road from the west
Shut Friday lunch time onwards but by arrangement you can leave the sails some where. Possibly yachting solutions (at Rice & Coles). Ring them & they will give you Ian Gray's no. You could also drop them off at his house in Mayland sometimes.
They will repair & send them for cleaning. they normally bundle up a load once a month as I understand it
