Training Sails

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello All, 
Our sailing club in conjunction with the Hudson River Maritime Museum in Kingston N.Y. have been working on sailing promotion projects. One activity we started last year is Women On the Water (WOW). This is a program run by women, for women, to provide a low stress learning environment. The program was very popular in its initial offering last year and this year we already have 50 women signed up. My boat participated last year and she will again this year. The women really like the laser because it's light and responsive and relatively comfy.
Since the boat is now being used as a part time training vessel, I'd like to find some modestly priced used sails that would be more appropriate for the WOW program. A main sail for sure and a lapper if it would fit my #5 extrusion. 
Thanks in advance as always, john. email fatjohnz28 at gmail dot com
