Greetings,
I’m looking for a used, in good to fair shape, mainsail for our boat, a 1986 P 28-2.
Any suggestions? Where to look for it? Anybody has one for sale?
Thanks in advance.
Kindest regards,
Mario deCarvalho

Get the dimensions (if you don't have them) off baconsails.com and check ebay. Maine Marine Salvage in Portland Maine had a loft full of sails still when they closed last Saturday (for good) but they may not have sent them to to the sailbag factory yet.

I think it came from something I found on https://www.ussailing.org/competition/offshore/phrf/ years ago. "PHRF Measurement Database".
