Port Whitby Marina was hosting a boating yard sale on Saturday morning.
Got down there and picked up a Garhaurer double block ($10) for the end of the boom in the double ended mainsheet.
There were various sails there, many of them older.
There was a Quantum sail there, and the guy said it was from a CS22. Quickly Googled the rig dimensions of the CS22, and almost identical to the C22. It looked brand new: high tech mylar carbon fiber fabric, hank-on, with draft stripes. Guy said it belong to a friend who purchased the sail new a couple of years ago, but never used it more than couple times before selling the boat. I unfolded the sail and measured it, would be a perfect fit! Couldn't get the $200 out of my wallet fast enough!
In the sail bag was a bill from Quantum Sails from 2009 for $1600!
SCORE!!! |
Melissa and I hoisted it on little Still Time on Sunday, and the fit looked good.
Can't wait to try it in the last singlehanded race on Wednesday!
