Drascombe Sails
As one of the original advertisers in the Drascombe Association Newsletter, we have an extensive knowledge of these craft. We personally own a Longboat Cruiser which we use as a test bed for developing sails.
Not only do we make replacement sails, where we combine traditional sail making techniques with modern materials, but we often work with owners who wish to modify their current rig.
All of our Drascombe sails are available in a choice of three panel layouts, and for most boats we can offer four different types of mainsail, from the original gunter to the innovative Batten Roached Main.
Our commitment to the Drascombe range is clearly demonstrated by us not accepting any currently available sailcloth, but working with Dimension-Polyant to provide us with a premium grade sailcloth with medium finish. This cloth is exclusive to R.& J. Sails and will give a long lasting sail which will enhance your boat for many seasons.
