Congrats! My 2 cents: 15 - 25 year old sails are shot. I don't know what your wind conditions are like, but I would buy a Harken furler and a good Dacron sail that covers most of your wind conditions. Partially furled sails are not great upwind, but are fine for cruising. It will cost several hundred dollars each to convert the old sails. You might be better off picking up a used #3 and converting the #1 or vice versa depending on condition. You can stay within your budget if you shop around. If you are happy with the sock, keep it.
