Is there mouch around in the way of second hand sails out there,the one i;ve got on my latest build looks crap[considering the work i've put into the build]I KNOW, I KNOW the plans are there for re cutting but dont have a machine to do the sowing and a propper sail would finish the job nicely.looking for something around 4-5 mtr,luff length can be ajusted with mast tip extension.will be making some local enquieries,Ken Obrien,Alegaytor Sails[who else could be worth a try to get one made]

Also try Ray Brown sails, he was the guy that made the "Sandpiper" sails many years ago...
www.yachtsails.com.au/

But with all sailmakers,
Land yachts are VASTLY different from water yachts and it will probably be up to you to do the research and design of the sail before you contact them.
Most sail makers will do a nice copy of a previously made sail but starting from scratch is a bit different.
