Alcort Catfish SMEDLEY 13 Jun 18 Sail Battens

13 Jun 18:

Since SMEDLEY's old soft sail did not shred when we took her out we headed over to Schurr Sails to get some battens ordered. We were treated to a tour of the loft and Hunter cut the battens while we were there. He shared a story of how he sailed a Catfish when he was a kid, his Dad considered buying one but they settled on a Hobie 14 instead. He has been sailing since then.

Our friends at Schurr take great care of us, they have made us several sails for our restoration boats and a beautiful spinnaker for our Daysailer. Here is SMEDLEY's sail hanging out with Hunter and a few other sails in the loft.
