A friend told me to check out Spinney's on the web for used sails, but I didn't find them. Do you know of a source? I'm looking for a main for my Rhodes 18 and a jib for the 23' AR True Rocket.

Perhaps your friend meant Minney's (http://www.minneysyachtsurplus.com/)?

There's also Bacon's in Annapolis...

There is also http://www.baconsails.com/. Someone posted this a few years back and I bookmarked it.

Closer to home. http://marineconsignment.shoprw.com/home.php and the Rhodes 18 fleet in Biddeford Pool, Maine. http://www.biddefordpool.org/bpyc/public/rhodes_18/rhodes_18.htm They may know of some sails available.

Sniff around online, various resellers have various ways to record your requirements. Bacon sails has a great selection, worth calling them directly.

If you know the dimensions check eBay. I just sold a pile of sails for a co-worker and many sold for next to nothing. Some were not great but usable others were in good shape just dirty. Most sold for less than $20.00.
