Sails wanted

The mainsail that I inherited with my Tigress is getting very tatty. I have already used about 4 rolls of high performance sail repair tape and I am still getting more splits.
So I am on the hunt for a suitable set of good second hand sails. I have a Proctor Alpha mast (fairly bendy by aluminium mast standards) mast ram and a carbon fibre boom. Primarily for river sailing.
Has anybody got some suitable sails they would like to sell? I tried to use the For Sale/Wanted section of the website but it did not want to cooperate!
My phone number is in the 2010 booklet.
Fingers crossed.

Hi Alistair
I now have sails down from loft and will take them to Spinnaker next weekend.
Is anyone  from Twickenham going  ?

Hi Gerald.

Thanks for making an expedition up into the loft!

I'm afraid that nobody from Twickenham is going to the Spinnaker event, so I think our best option is to meet up somewhere en route.
If you plan to go the M25/M3route then Fleet services on the M3 would make sense, or somewhere close to the M3/A322 junction at Lightwater.

Alternatively if you plan to go via the North Circular we could arrange to meet somewhere on your way through to the M3. Early on a Sunday morning there would not be much traffic on the North Circular.

 I don't want to delay you getting down to Spinnaker, so whatever location is the most convenient for you.

Many thanks
Alistair
