If you’re bringing your sails into the loft for service or storage using a drawstring sail bag, you may be staring at that gold UK Sailmakers bag that’s been stashed below deck for months, or even years, wondering how your sail will ever fit. Trust us: over the years, our lofts have seen some very creative folding techniques! Getting your sails serviced before the spring sailing season is key to keeping them performing at their best, and catching small maintenance issues early can help prevent costly repairs down the road. Your local UK Sailmakers loft can inspect, repair, or clean your sails, and if you’re thinking about a new one, this is the perfect time to plan for spring delivery. We can help you create a multi-year plan to suit your needs, budget, and sailing goals. Some UK Sailmakers lofts also offer collection and installation services to make it easy to bring your sails in for repair, winter storage, or return. But if you’re dropping your sails off yourself and are wondering how to fit them into a standard drawstring bag, follow this step-by-step guide—it will save you time and make your sailmaker’s job easier. Step 1: Remove any battens and sheets from the sail and lay it out on a clean, flat surface—like a dock finger, sailing club lawn, or other smooth area. Avoid dragging the sail across rough concrete or other hard, abrasive surfaces. Step 2: Flatten about an arm span’s width of the foot, keeping the remainder of the sail neatly piled beside it without twists. Step 3: Grip the foot of the sail while holding the section for your first fold taut. Keep the height of your drawstring bag in mind and make folds slightly narrower than your sail bag’s height to ensure a good fit. Step 4: Continue flaking the sail back and forth, staying between the tack and clew, all the way to the head. You don’t need to stack the luff like you would for a racing sail “sausage bag,” though you can if you prefer. Step 5: Fold over the tack edge over, then roll the sail toward the clew. Step 6: Secure the rolled sail with sail ties and slide it into your drawstring bag. Done!

Сегодня день отличный. После завтрака я с мальчиками пошла на пляж. Мы играли в мяч. Погода очень теплая. Сергей разобрал погон гика. Он вымыл все шарики из каретки. После обеда я с Сергеем сходили в магазин за новой веревкой для погона гика. После магазина я пошла готовить пиццу. Сергей сделал 2 сплетня на новой верёвке. Мальчики прошли один урок по богам древней Греции и немного почитали. Я домонтировала новое видео для YouTube канала. #sailinglife_olle Today is a great day. After breakfast, the boys and I went to the beach. We played ball. The weather is very warm. Sergei disassembled the geek's shoulder strap. He washed all the balls out of the carriage. After lunch, Sergei and I went to the store for a new rope for the geek's shoulder strap. After the shop, I went to make pizza. Sergey made 2 gossip on a new rope.
