Sailmakers In south Wales

Garland in Kingswood, Bristol? But he had sold the business and I'm not sure what the new guy does. Made a cracking spray hood for our Achilles and repaired several sails that we had pushed too hard.
 
have you looked at the prices of hong kong sails?.friend of mine boought a main off them a few years back, was well pleased, and very reasonable priced.the problem around here afew years agothe cruisers played second fiddle to the racers.
 
If buying new I would say Quay sails or Arun sails (just type them into google). They are down south but deliver and at a very good price. Delivery 2-3 weeks.

For local I would say Josh Brown as above who recently gave me a good sail repair. I understand he is a bit chock a block a the mo but may have a sail in stock.
 
Garlands has been sold, but the new guys do sprayhoods etc and sail repairs, though they don't make sails.

I vote for Crusader - very knowledgeable, good work, and prompt. Price not as good as eg Hong Kong Sails but quicker, and easier to put right any problems.

Unless of course you want to support the local guy.....
