Who made my sail?

Macgregor, Hunter Venture 21, H25 Candlewood
I have a partial logo and would like to contact the manufacturer, the sail is a 150% genoa from a '76 Hunter 25, none of my searches came up with anything. And the sail is a much nicer orange then showed up in the pictures :eek:

Made by "Babel & Buchbinder Sailmakers"

These are probably the guys who made it. Now working for Doyle.

Bill Buchbinder & Tom Babel
Blue Water Sails



I found a few used sails by them for sale online, But it looks like Babel & Buchbinder went under as an independent sail maker a while ago.

After a little more research, It has to be the same guys. They are still operating in the same city. Looks like Babel & Buchbinder Inc. closed in 1986

BABEL & BUCHBINDER, INC.

"BABEL & BUCHBINDER, INC. is a company in Michigan and its company number is 008574. BABEL & BUCHBINDER, INC. was registered on 6-3-1976. The company's status is listed as AUTOMATIC DISSOLUTION Date: 5-15-1986"

Thanks for the info, I sent off an email.

I like this orange sail for some reason, so I would like it repaired properly.
