All sails and accessories are carefully designed and produced on a "one-off basis" as we are NOT a mass-production sailmaking business.

We carefully select sail cloth with the aid of stretch test graphs for each sail, specifically according to sail type and aspect ratio. It is because of our in-depth knowledge of sail cloth and yachts that we are able to advise our customers of the most suitable sails for their requirements.

Scotland’s premier boat storage facility, Fairlie Quay, is situated on the southern shore of the Clyde close to the tourist town of Largs and only 35 minutes from Glasgow. Direct road, rail and air links mean that it is a gateway offering easy access to Arran & Bute and the world class sailing waters of the west of Scotland.

Each trip is unique and varies according to the season. There are almost daily sightings of Seals, Oyster Catchers, Gannets, Cormorants and occasional sightings of Porpoise, Dolphins and Whales.

We also run a variety of Corporate Events, group days, Stag/Hen days and weekends and also custom trips to suit you. For those events we can organise the entire event including accomodation, meals, other transportation and any other requirements that you may have.

Although we are based on the West Coast of Scotland we are fully mobile and can bring the boats to your location. Please just get in touch with us with an enquiry.
