Re: need sails for pearson 27 1988

The best solution is to contact a local sailmaker and have them built for your boat. IF that is not within the budget, then used sails must be sourced.

You will need to have the rig dimensions, best actually measured on your own boat, next best from data files. Armed with these numbers, peruse the used sail brokers (Google for a good list).

Headsails are pretty easy to find, mains that will work without modifications are more difficult, but folks like Bacon and Minney's have large inventories. Sometimes it is fiscally reasonable to buy a used main that requires modification, but unless you can do this yourself the costs can rise dramatically.

Good luck in your search.

Check out National Sail Supply if your going for new sails. I just purchased new main & jib for my Gulfstar 37. Good experience dealing with these guys. Many on CF have used them.

I have a bunch of extra sails for a Pearson Ariel (26') - you would have to let me know if your measurements would work (Google it)..not great, but usable if you don't have any..
