Jib needed Hunter 216

[AlwaysSailing]

Hello All, I am looking for a used Hunter 216 roller furling jib to purchase.
It does not have to be in perfect condition.
If anyone has one I would be interested. Lost mine in a gale recently.
I am in the Long Island area of New York
Thank you.
Andrew

Hi Andrew. Good to see you back on the SBO forum.
Let us know your sailing experiences with the 216 Hunter you purchased.

Used sails are a mixed bag. You might try Bacon Sails on your side of the Mississippi.

Thank you for the reference to Bacon Sails. Who would thunk bacon and sails! I went on to the classifieds on this site. I did not see any sails. As I am new to Sailboat Owners, I'm not sure where the other places there are to look if Crazy Dave can direct me. BTW, if there is any test place for breaking a boat, I am living in it. Lot's of wind all of the time and significant gusts and wind shifts and the Hunter 216 is generally over canvassed for windward. I can also assure anyone who cares, that it is nearly impossible to turn this boat over. We shall see... Andrew

I used to patronize Sailer’s Choice in Amityville. Had very good experiences with Jim, the owner. They are affiliated with Neil Pride. He might be able to find a sail for the OP. If the OP is going to sail a business relationship with this loft would be an asset. I know several sailers from the North Fork who drive there for their sail needs. And their canvas work.
