hokie member Registered: 09/04/06 Posts: 168 Loc: San Diego	The cover on my luff rope has some tears in it and I would like to have it replaced. Does anyone have recommendations for sail repair local to Raleigh or Virginia Beach? _________________________

abbman member Registered: 01/20/07 Posts: 127 Loc: North Carolina	Ullman Sail Loft in Oriental fixed my jib a year or two ago. My head had ripped in a demasting and my luff wire had come out. They did a great job. _________________________ James 1983 Hobie 16'

They fixed some dinghy sails for me in the past and its convenient to drop it off after the Version 2.7 regatta this year. _________________________
