- Make sure that your sail is clean, free
from sand and sea water and dry. Sending us a wet and dirty sail will only
take longer and incur more cost as we will have to find the time to clean
and then dry your sail prior to starting the repair. A dirty sail usually
ends up at the back of the queue.
- Clearly mark each sail with your name
and the damage you want us to repair
- Roll your sail tightly and secure with
packing tape and place in sail bag so that it doesn't un-roll during
transit then encase the bag with a suitable material to protect the it
from incidental transit damage such as scuffing and dirt.
- If you are sending more than one sail,
after stage (3) tape all sails together keeping the overall pack as short
as possible. Make sure the complete pack is secure. If a sail falls out,
the whole pack may fall apart and the sails will be lost in some transit
hub or
warehouse.

charges as "Freight " which will incur you with extra transit costs
