Farrier 24 Customer Testimonial
I'm afraid sailing is a passion with me, and over the years I have spent alot of money on sails. Most times I go pick up my new sail from the loft, put it on the boat myself, trial it and take it back for any mods.I once actually got a sailmaker to come down to the 1020 o0n the dock when I bought a new main.
So when Rodney said he needed to go racing with me to try the new sails, I said no, you don't have to do that, just come out for half an hr. But no, he came out for a full day.
He also gave me a lot of tips about sailing multis, what to look for with various issues etc, etc.
Since then, he has often said to me "John, you need to do this", or, "maybe should try..." so when he said "What you really need is a full masthead Kite" I said, "Cmon Rodney, I've just spent $$$$s replacing my main, jib screecher and kite, and you now want me to spend more on another kite, I can't afford it!'
"That's OK" he said " We've got some spare cloth here, we'll make it and just pay it off as you can afford it, no problem." And so I got my masthead kite and am still paying it off.
I go into Evolution sails often (I'm a bit good at trawling my masthead kite) and the size of some of the sails on the floor is amazing.
I asked Rodney, why he bothers with sails my size, and it's cos his heart is in that size boat.
Greame is always very helpful as well, I have never been let down with having sails finished for sailing on a set day, (unlike other trades). He's always happy to listen to my ravings and has also taken photos of my boat on the water and emailed them to me.
The guys on the floor are always friendly, Casey and Richard keen to swap stories of the last simrad or club race, and now Young Aaron is racing with me. Weight for enthusiasm and performance, I reckon I've got the best crew one could have.
So for a 'Goodsort' Trade related entity I would add Evolution Sails to the list
