check out the website sailcare.com. They use a process that rejuvinates the sails. Sails come back looking and feeling like new. Try this before you go to the expense of new sails.

Sailcare.com is about 90min from me. I am workung to coordinate a visit with a fellow sailor to get our sails done. Looks pretty reasonable. When i get it done i post updates.

I am sure you will be more than satisfied when you get the sails back. They did my Catalina and Macgregor sails as well as suppling all the running lines at about half the price of West Marine. When you see them tell them Hello from Lee Sheldon in California.
