Testimonials - Bacon Sails

Below are a few kind words from our customers.

Gave her a test run today… Sail is perfect for the boat… ran down wind well, has a nice shoulder to it but not too big. Put a reach on and she climbed nicely; Pretty awesome fit for considering it was off the shelf! Thank you very much, Great people, great experience, great sail!!! What else could you want! Have an awesome summer and I will be in touch. Will certainly spread the word up here in New England. Cheers!

Hey Stevie, I hope you are well. Hey, I wanted to send you some pictures of the new to us sail on our boat as you had asked. We couldn’t be any happier and think it looks freaking awesome. Thank you so much for all of your help and guidance. I am already telling others to go to your site to look for their new/used sails.

Thanks Again,

Jason

” Hey All, I can not express my gratitude for the most perfect foresail you made for my old boat….Once I hoisted this sail and caught the wind my hear lightened up as she took off like a racehorse. She actually made the trip close hauling from St. John to Carriacou in just under 4 days!! Impressive for a 50 year old shoal keeled fat old boat!
Next project this coming spring is to order a new mainsail with 3 reef points…. To all involved, thanks again and I look forward to ordering a new mainsail this upcoming spring.”

“Hey, I bought a used Genoa from you last week, and your company was amazing. The person I talked to helped me decide on a the sail, and it is in amazing shape: “good condition” was a very conservative assessment. You will be hearing from me again when it is time for a new spinnaker.”

“Hi Stevie, I just wanted to thank you for the asymmetric spinnaker. I hoisted it at the dock real fast to get a sense of it and wow does it pull!…yeah! it is a beautiful shape!” –

Stevie,

I really appreciate you all there helping me find the sails for Luna Sea. She’s sailing the way I have been designing her to and had always hoped for. Thanks.

Hi Gary,
The sail you made for Todd O. fit beautifully. Thank you for a job well done. The details that you added to the sail, like the lash point below the luff tape, are very nice and highly useful!

Sincerely,

Dear Robb,
You are a true businessman in a funky Orwellian age. By approaching this, as you did, you increased my loyalty to Bacon Sails by 200%. In other words, “I’ll be back”, again.

Keep up the good work. Thanks again, and best wishes.

Dear Gary and Bacons staff,
I wanted to say thank you for a your effort to make the new jib sail for our little 22 ft Cal, Valkyrie. We were expecting friends in town from Hungary and so wanted to take them sailing. When we put in the order, we were so nervous as to whether or not it would be ready in time, as we had already promised to take them out. Your team expedited the production and monitored the project with such diligence and care, that we were able to get the jib sail complete and installed in time to host them for the 4th of July.

Christina and her daughter, Virag, were thrilled to celebrate America’s birthday by boat!

Thank you so much! We will highly recommend Bacons for sail construction and look forward to using your company for other rigging services in the future.

– Brianna C. 07/05/17

I just want to tell you guys that you have another satisfied customer here. The chances of finding a sail custom made for our boat in your inventory were practically nil, yet you had one. It even had the logo for our boat model on it. Thanks for great service all around.

– Tom D. 05/03/17

Gary,
Just wanted to let you know that we raced for the first time with the new (to us) spinnaker on Saturday. It fits beautifully; and I’ve attached a photo.

Thanks again!

Hi Gary, just wanted to thank everyone at Bacon Sails. I’m loving my CDI Fuller and Windrifter loves the extra kick from the 130 Genoa!!! The Fuller makes it so much easier!!

Windrifter is the black boat!!

Thanks again,

Thanks, Gary: Don’t know if I’ll get this boat or not but now I have some options for a more intelligent decision.

Just wanted to let you know the sail arrive promptly and is awesome.

Hi Gary,
Thanks again for your help with the new reefable jib. I especially appreciate the inspection and hand-work to improve the factory product.

I must say this has been one of the pleasantest experiences buying anything I’ve ever had!

Best regards,
