Hi Jeff,will grab that number off you,but maybe it is better for me to drop the sail off in Bowen that way I have a reason to come down for a sail.I come off roster on wed and have a week off so if it looks like some wind down your way here I come.The sail that needs repair has a damaged sleave which happened while treading the mast in so maybe it is beyond repair,I hope not as it's my most used sail and I keep on getting just a little more use out of it.

Hi Jeff,are you working wed,thurs or fri as the wind is lookin ok for then?Don't worry about booking any thing as I will probably just bring a tent down and get a site in the caravan park,thats if they have them.I want to try to be back by Sunday cause the family are heading off to Brizzy for team sailing.

Looks like it might have to be fri, sat as I have a big night tonight at work and may have to cover for someone tomorrow and thurs.Had a good blast yesterday over powered on a 6.5 may get an hour or two in today before a siesta.

As I thought I have to work tomorrow and thurs so will try to get down early fri for a sail ,see what the winds up to.If not will get down fri arvo.

There used to be a HOOD Sails loft in South Townsville and a guy there called Michael Hunt. I used to get all my sails fixed there.

Mr Hunt may have been ok with old dacron sails but he has been left behind with tecnology.Take a modern sail into him now and after much head scratching and mumbling it's deemed too hard to repair.It's better to get someone who want's the work,lot's of young guys down in Arlie who know their stuff.
