Sample Measuring Form

Furling Headsail

This is a sample measuring form whch demonstrates the measurements required when you purchase a Furling Headsail.

A "live" measuring form will be sent to you at the time of purchase. The live form is linked to your order and is the best way to provide measurements. Please do not use this form to submit measurements.

Owners sometimes wonder why we need measurements. Aren't they the same for all boats of the same model? Actually, no.

Manufacturers often change gear mid-production run due to shortages, excess inventory on hand or simply a better deal from another supplier. Molds wear out and are changed, with slight differences in dimensions. Or, the dealer or a prior owner made modifications to the boat.

And with a purchase as important as this, we simply can't rely on patterns from other boats. When you complete and submit this form you ensure that your Furling Headsail will fit your boat perfectly.
