What Our Customers Are Saying….

Nica and Jeremy Waters,  Bristol Channel Cutter 28 SV Calypso

"How often do you get to meet face-to-face with your sailmaker? This personal attention is one big reason we love working with Jerry and his team. He encouraged us to sail another season with our current sail, touched us by adding, unasked,  a BCC logo to our new mainsail and was enthusiastic to build our very small staysail. The team’s mission is to provide exemplary service and exceptional sails--not to make a quick buck."

Glenn Doncaster, Arcona 46 SV Nanuq

Evolution Sailmakers has greatly contributed to Nanuq's success on the racing circuit.  Whether we're racing in the Newport to Bermuda Race or closer to home on the Chesapeake, we rely on Jerry and his staff to build the fastest sails on the course and keep them in top condition.  He's an integral member of Team Nanuq!

  

Lew Thatcher, Catalina 320 SV Catitude

We recently inspected one of my spinnakers to make sure it was race ready and legal under class rules.  Jerry talked me through using Catitude's polars for both my sym and asym sails. This is the kind of service sailors have come to expect from Evolution Sailmakers,  I've always thought that Jerry would be delighted to build me a racing sail that's fast enought to beat him!

 

Joe Goodgame, Lagoon 42 TPI SV Free Bird

“After we purchased our 1992 Lagoon 42 TPI we felt a light catamaran like this really deserved some high performance sails that could also stand up to cruising wear and tear.  We then reached out to Jerry Latell and decided to work with his team and Evolution sails to make us a new mainsail, self tacking jib and Code 0.  The team was excellent to work with and we have been very happy with the results.  The expedition membrane is good looking, tough and it sets beautifully.”
