If your really being that anal... I have a small amount of the CII. Cloth
in stock and even have some orange insignia tape. Though I'd charge more for the tape it's pretty unecessary. |

Thats been fussy! I'd just go with the option mentioned, thats peanuts for a repair, after all no repair is going to be seamless and not notice on a sail. |

What about the orange sticky-back dacron?

Just a simple patch.
I'd cut a new bit of cloth to just larger than the damaged area. Then put seaming tape around the edges. Stick it over the damaged area on one side of the sail. Check that it hasn't affected the sails shape and then stich it down. Then its just a case of using a very sharp pair of scissors to cut away the damged area and job done. |

I'd repair that in roughly 15-20 mins and charge you around £25
Thats only very minor damage from what I can see in the photo |

If you have claimed on your insurance they will want you to send it to a sail maker for an estitmate, looking at that its fairly minor and i wouldn't bother with a claim. Speak to someone like P&B ad send it off to them explain its a cash repair and i suspect it won't cost you more then £50
