Hi,<br><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">I'm wondering if you carry/make sails that are not on your website.<br>
<br></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">In particular, I have an Albacore and it's time for a new crusing/everyday jib.<br><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">
I'm also thinking about experimenting with "turboing" it by adding an asymmetrical spinnaker. The only assy kite I see on your website is the 400 sq ft Vx, which seems a bit large. Do you ever sell or make smaller ones?<br>
<br></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">Thanks.<br></div></div>
