Why use these instead of the cheap numbers you find at the hardware store? Because you get what you pay for. Those letters and numbers are made to withstand the elements regardless of weight, thickness, etc. Our materials are thin enough to not distort or inhibit your sails under even the lightest conditions. Also, unlike the jumble pack you get from the stores, these numbers are not pulled from a box, they are custom cut, exactly to what you need, and is required under your class rules. Further, they are shipped on a backing tape exactly as they came off the cutter which is accurate to within .001" Few things can add as much to a finished model or detract from it if not done properly, as the markings on the sails. Sails numbers and Class Symbols are available NOW and typically ship out within a few days. They are available in the basic colors, Black, Red, Blue,White and Yellow. Email for a quote, typically around $1 per character.
While we are producing some inhouse sails, they are being used solely for testing purposes. Hopefully late in the year or early in 2009 we will begin offering sails for our own boats as well as other customer needs.
We have available at this time a cnc cutter that produces
all our sail symbols and sail numbers for any and all class of boats, as
well as custom work and some custom graphics. While I completely enjoy doing
the graphic work, it is very time consuming and that is something we are
chronically short of around here.
