Also, there are many small shops around the country that sew old sails into bags and other paraphernalia. I have donated a sail or two and have some great bags that they gave me in trade for the sail.

Old sails tend to have some really handy SS parts (like those little rings on the wishbones that go through reefing points) and seriously good D Rings and other hardware that is actually worth more than you'll get for the sail. Newer sails don't have those parts unless you pay for them, and the SS parts are not of the same quality. I have a SS ring from a 30 year old sail that I currently clip the davit onto when hauling the outboard up. Old SS hardware comes in really handy (much like old rope) and you never know when you'll want it.
