We're in the process of looking to replace our fore and mainsail. We'd like a dacron main and fore because we'll be mainly daysailing & cruising while we learn towards racing eventually. Ideally, we would like a 155% genoa that can be used on a roller furling. The dacron main we have has a pretty good belly in it and a curved leach (not sure what the term is for that). Does anyone have any sails like this that are gently used you might be willing to part with? We'll purchase new if we have to, but a gently used hand-me-down would be very welcome.

Thanks,

Nate

Nate,
As a suggestion, give Benz Faget a call. He runs the North Sails loft in New Orleans. He is on top of what's happening in J/30's. He may know someone looking to trade in used J/30 sails on new ones 504-615-7867
