First short dibs to the prior responders. Available
otherwise very soon to anyone else, if neither of the
earlier people still wants this. The earliest first
responder was a man somewher in MA. Haven’t heard back
from him since I gave him UPS’ shipping cost estimate.
About $425 to $450. West coast to East.
The second family is cruising in Mexico, but had a
family member who volunteered to stop by my place and
carry the sail away. Either plan works. If you are
either of the above parties, please contact me soon.
(360) 671-3434.
The sail is in good, useable now, condition. It is
Dacron. It may be cut a little more moderately than
the generous “racing cut” people are now replacing
first issue sails with. But as a spare, or temp.
replacement, great!
I live 90 miles north of Seattle, 60 miles south of
Vancouver BC. My zip is 98225, if you want to play
with your own cost guestimating. UPS and I came up
with a finished package size of 12" by 12" by 15 feet
6"
in length. That is an obligate, due to the battens.
We guessed weight of 200 pounds or under. If
significantly under, the shipping price will drop. We
planned insuring for $5000 in case of loss or damage
in transit. That insurance, and local taxes, are
already in the estimate you see quoted tentatively
above.
Best wishes, and happy late summer sailing.

Ship the sail without the battens and the recipient can procure battens
locally.
I generally avoid shipping battens over a certain length due to safety
concerns. If you do ship battens use a rectangular and flattish box.
Battens should be coiled and securely taped. It will not hurt the
battens to be coiled.
If you wish to ship battens uncoiled there are trucking companies that
do it economically.
We routinely ship sails all over the country so let me know if you need
any help.
Another alternative would be having Drew at your neighborhood sail loft
package and ship the sail for you. I’m sure if you paid the going shop
rate they could do that for you.

Captain Jac,
On second thought you might want to just keep those battens as spares
for yourself. I’d feel really bad if that coil sprung open and hurt
someone. Coiling big battens is a multi-person operation and if the
recipient isn’t careful while uncoiling they could get themselves
hurt.
If the sail is in good shape it’s well worth the investment of new
battens for whoever gets it. Shipping isn’t too much when you’re just
sending the sail. Make sure you do ground not air. Way too expensive
that way.

Great, Nick. Will do. You are Number One, behind the
earlier two.
I figure to give them until about Wednesday to check
into their mail.
Cheers!

Thanks, dave! Looks like the guy in LA with the
new-to-him F36/38,
Nick P., will get it if the other folks don’t check
back in soon. I think the first guy didn’t expect such
high shipping costs. The second set of folks were
sincere, but they are cruising. Probably not often on
the chat list. It’s a shame I got detained by the
first guy. The cruisers’ brother, or brother-in-law,
was traveling right through here. He could have had
the sail for them. Sigh.
