Hi,
we need for our Sabre 27 a new mainsail, but first of all we need the original dimensions of the mainsail.
We are sailing our Sabre in the Netherlands with a mainsail, which looks not like the original mainsail and is now totally broken.
Does anyone know a good sailmaker who has the dimensions of the mainsail in his database ?
Regards
Martin

I bought a new mainsail from Kemps. They have been making sails for Sabres for years.
They did ask for confirmation of sizes however, as the mast and boom fitted seems to vary considerably.

Hi Martin,
Because with Sabres, there are so many different sizes of masts and booms and all their fittings, you must use your own boats measurements when buying a new sail!
The best way is to get your local sailmaker to visit your boat and measure her, himself.
