I like the fact that quntum post their prices in OD section for
express . Is anyone else providing their prices up front so I can
compare
it without the legwork?Recent quotes? Group discounts?
Anyone interested in purchase of main this winter?
:: I believe Quantum, Santa Cruz Sails, UK, and Pineapple

:: are comfortable with, 2) the kind of service they will
:: provide, 3) price.

:: Personally there is one other factor I consider, and
:: that is what kind of history the loft (or the sailmakers
:: from the loft) have of supporting the fleet.

:: I don't think you get enough extra mileage out of a
:: Kevlar main to justify the higher price, but maybe
:: others can comment on their experience in that regard
:: (as we've always just gone with Dacron).
