------------- life's too short not to drink a good red wine. |
Our Topaz top section mast and sail got destroyed in freak weather conditions. We don't race it so we're not after 'A1' sail ~ we just want to get sailing again! Does anyone have anything for sale???????? Other than Y&Y , apollo duck and boats and outboards are there any other sites to find used bits such as these for sale?? Thanks in anticipation.Replies:

Try Ebay.

How about http://www.lontonandgray.com/surplussails.php - http://www.lontonandgray.com/surplussails.php Or check out the sailing schools web sites, they often sell on their old kit. |

You probably considered this ... But have you had a word with your insurers? Depending on the circumstances, they may be able to help out. Thats what you pay them for, after all! ------------- Vareo - 149 "Secrets" http://www.TandyUKServers.co.uk" rel="nofollow - TandyUK Servers |

Might be worth ringing up Topper, their Topaz's are usually assembled at Brightlingsea, they often put any scratched, not quite perfect components to one side - might be worth enquiring to see if there any 'B grade' spars at a reduced price?
