Just a note to let everyone know that one can have local sail repair done by Bruce Sheldon at Sheldon Kitesailing. I brought my windsurf sail to his shop in Rio Vista and he had it repaired in less than 2 business days. He even offered me to wait while he did it but I declined. It cost me $50.

Yep! Bruce is a good guy. I don't think he makes sails anymore but he used to. Solid as a rock. Very Happy

Most sails in quiver are old Sheldon sails... they're GREAT !!!
I'm hard on my gear, and they keep taking the beating (watch, tonight I'll have a failure) I like the way they take shape as you rig... it's like they come alive.
Bruce has made a few repairs for me. Good price & time. Be careful if you tell him no hurry, thought. He mistakenly gave my sail for a Windsurfing display at the CA State Fair one year. We both got a good laugh out of it & he gave me some pictures of my sail on display for bragging rights when I finally picked it up.

I bought my first board from him, a Bic Wing, when he was located in Sacramento. Boy was that a long time ago. He is the go to guy for Delta sail repair for sure. He just repaired one of my sails and my sail bag on top of that. Great guy and does great work.

Yep he made my last 2 quivers. Although I've gone to Ezzys I still use the 4.5. Great sail.
