Another thought - probably worth posting your question on the Bristol Channel Forum?

I got a very competitive quote from Seateach for a new Furling genoa.

I've had many repairs done by Stephen Ratsey sailmakers in Neyland, all good and very reasonable.

Good starting point would be to get a quote from one of the larger national lofts such as Kemps or Crusader. You need to have some idea of what sort of sails you want as prices vary according to material and finish. Most of the big sailmakers have information on their websites that explains the different types. Gather as much information as you can to help in your final decision. It may be that a local loft will do the job you want, but you need to have something to compare it with.

Hi

I don't know whether you are still looking, but I would definitely recommend Crusader. Just received a furling gennaker from them and the whole process of buying ( I live in Switzerland) was very easy and professional, and the quality of the delivered sail (including logo) looks very good. Pricewise, they beat the pants of costs I had quoted in Switzerland, but that is probably more due to the fact that they sell more of these things in the UK than they do here.

Definitely worth having a chat to.
