Testimonials

 

 

Just to let you know that I used the new cover to tow my boat back to Essex, and I am delighted with it. Thank you for getting it made so quickly.

Kind regards, Arthur Davey


I really enjoyed looking over your new facilities the other day; a significant improvement. Thank you for the invoice, which was paid in full by bank transfer a few minutes ago. I would prefer that you store the sails and cover over the winter, if that suits, looking to re-rig in early March 2018. A great service as ever.

Kind regards, Harry


I wanted just to let you know that we sold FM at the end of the summer, so there won’t be any sails for you to look after this year. We’ve been cruising together for over 50 years and it was the right moment to swallow the anchor  – lots of good memories and only the odd regret!

I wanted to thank you (and Simon before you) for looking after our sails so well for us over the last ten years or so. The new mains’l was a definite help in making the sale. I’m afraid FM’s going to be based on the Hamble, so I can’t pass the new owners on to you.

Best wishes, Chris


I thought you might like to see the sails in place. They’re just the job, many thanks. We’ll probably do the same on one of the other cafes in due course so I’ll be in touch then.

Many thanks for an outstanding service. I’ll try the sail today and get back to you.

As promised the other day, please find attached some photos showing the chart pocket you made for us, as it is hanging now in our boat. When we went away with the boat in the summer for 2 weeks to the Channel Islands, we found it worked very well for us. Best regards,

Frank

Just a quick note to say thank you both for the excellent advice and work you have done with the new asymmetric and rigging for Jennyanydots. Used it all the way from Start Point back to Dartmouth this morning with no problems on both tacks.

Stuart


Thanks Sean for delivering my sails, as usual Dart Sails exceeds all expectations!

Chris


Many thanks for an outstanding service. It fitted fine into the groove. Look forward to giving you more work in the future.

We took the boat out for a shake down sail yesterday. The new mainsail sets beautifully and looks great. Many thanks. I’ll be in touch to arrange a time to measure up for a new stacking system.

I had a pool cover made and it is great, made to the measurements I provided and fits perfectly. The quality is great with reinforced stitching and secure fastenings, complete with a bag to store it in the winter, Thanks load Sean and team.

The team at Dart Sails made me a set of J24 sails. They were produced quickly, and have been put together beautifully, and most importantly have been approved by the class measurer. Dominic has been sailing with the boat to ensure that they are correct, and we are both pleased with the speed and height that they have. Would recommend to anyone.

I would just like to pass on a big ‘thank you’ for the new jib you have recently made for Leader. I have just come back from a few weeks on board and I can confirm it is a lovely sail which fits well, sets nicely and looks just right.

Harry Gottschalk


Great service, great communication by phone and email. Helpful and reasonable prices. Also very happy to remove and replace sails.
What more can you ask

Graham Board


Excellent loft providing a first class service. If you have not done so yet try this reinvigorated sailmaker – you won’t be disappointed!

David Wines


Sean knows more about sails and sail-making than anyone I’ve ever met…

Ryan Blackler


Great service measuring a squib jib this morning.

Keith Davies


Great service, great advice, nice people

Bil Caldwell


Sean,  I am thrilled with my new mainsail.  I have not had much opportunity to sail in all wind conditions, but she holds her shape very well, even when reefed.  I am convinced that the slight lee-helm that I previously experienced in light winds has reduced and will probably be eliminated with a bit of rigging tweaking.  I am particularly pleased with the cordage that you provided as it ‘looks the part’ in what is a traditional ‘proper’ boat.

I went to the marina today and was delighted with the end product.

I realise that you have been manically busy but it was worth the wait.
I will be back! Best regards

Keith

We are very happy with it. I have a message that you rang the office while I was at sea regarding some second hand traditional sails too?

I’m in all of next week if you would like to get in touch.

Just a short mail to say that I used the new 6 ouncer as well as the 5 ouncer last night  and got a first.

Both spinnakers are great. We used the 6 ouncer on the first run  and reeled in the boats ahead of us.

On the last leg all fleets converged at Z. Fearnought was already flying her spinnaker and passed ahead of us. We rounded and launched the 5 oucer with excellent results we caught up and passed her on our way to red. When both of us went to whites between Red and the Green finish line she finished just ahead of us.

So many thanks for a great pair of sails.

Regards
Ed

Thanks for your email.  We love the finished product.  We saw the spray hood the other day, it was brilliant, very pleased.

Many thanks for your efforts at such short notice, much appreciated.
