Hello listers, Bob Morgan and I have been mostly lurking on the list for the last few months, although we have had a few postings. We bought a C&C 37 (Bob's 5th C&C) one year ago and just discovered the list a few months ago. After following all the conversations for the last few months we now want to take advantage of all the knowledge that is out there. We had thought maybe we could get away with having our sails inspected and some repairs done this winter but now that we have taken them down and had a closer look we realized that was overly optimistic. I would like to ask what recommendations you can make for new sail purchases. We would appreciate your thoughts about everything - sailmakers, type of fabric, battens, measuring. We are currently weekend cruisers with no thoughts of racing. At this point we are planning on a new main and a furling genoa - 130%. What sailmakers do you recommend? What are the important questions to ask the sailmakers? What are your preferences for main sail reefing? (Not mast or boom furling.)I think we currently have one line slab reefing. Are there standard measurements for a C&C 37? Do we really need to be measured. Is this a subject that has been covered recently? If so, is there a way I can find it in the archives? Thanks everyone. By the way, I still have pictures from the Mystic Rendevous that I would like to post. I just haven't had time to figure out how to get them on Photo Bucket or Picasa or ?. It's a bummer when your working life interferes with your sailing life. And you are too old to remember how you posted them the last time.
