Feedback from a few of our many happy customers over the years:

Hi Dirk,

I have recommended you and your company to several friends I sail with and
I know a couple have since bought sails from you.

I just wanted to comment on the Rolly Tasker sail I purchased through you
for my 30' Nonsuch. This is the third season I've enjoyed this sail and I
can't say enough good things about the quality and performance. Thanks
again for your great service, a teriffic sail at a great price (about half
the cost of other sailmakers), a sail I will enjoy for many years to come.

Best Regards,
Dick Darrow

Hello Dirk,
I just arrived back to Ecuador and David and I put up our new sail. we are soooooo happy with it. It fits perfect and looks great. We definitely will recommend you to our friends who need a sail as well.
Pleasure doing business with you!
David and Virginia

Dirk,

The new jib arrived this afternoon and I must include that we think it is
wonderful. Thank You for providing a great service and product. Tomorrow we
are going to begin using it.

Thanks again.

    This past Sunday,  I had an opportunity to use the new genoa I purchased from you for my Hunter 23.

   I am very happy with both the quality and shape of the sail. In addition, the hanks provided are much easier to work with than those on my old sail - much to the pleasure of my 8 year old son.

   I will be sure to contact you for any future sail needs I may have.

Hey Dirk,

My 110% is working sweet!

I am able to point much higher and my racing times are better. Check out our website and look for me with the O'Day 25 named Crazy Lady. www.essasailing.com.

Dirk,

Have installed the new sail and I am very pleased with it. The fit is excellent and the change in performance is incredible. I have never had a new sail so you can imagine my satisfaction.

Thanks,

Dirk,

I got my new spinnaker earlier in the week.  We took the boat out for the Wednesday night race, and used the spinnaker for the first time.

It worked (and looked) really well.  I am really impressed with the quality of your product.  Having never dealt with a mail-order/internet sail loft before, I wasn't quite sure how to set my expectations...because a comparable sail from one of the other "big-name" lofts was almost $700 more in price.  Keep up the good work!

thanks again!

how yall doing .used the new main for the frist time was racing in winds that started at 8 to 10 and finished the race at 18 to20 went from what normaly would be a good second or third in these conditions to all most knocking the fiberglass off the winning boat every body i passed just looked and pointed thanks from the crew of Alexis and captn Richard Cassell 

Hey Dirk:

We finally got a little warm weather up here and I launched my Catalina and installed my new sail which looks great.

Just wanted to say thanks.

Regards,

Dirk,

I finally got the boat on the water now that the ice is gone and tried the new main  that you sent.  What a difference.  Gusts that would have knocked me over before now are easy to control as the boat moves forward instead of sideways when they hit.   It feels like a different boat under me. 

Keep up the good work,

John Ullrich

i don't know if you take testimonials but, i had to write and tell you how pleased i am with the sails that your loft supplied.. workmanship is superb. performance is great. I showed another neighbor and i believe he ordered new sails from your loft also..      Al Augustine... Port Charlotte, fl.

I just recieved the mainsail that I ordered from your company for my Catalina 22. 

I am pleased with the quality of materials and workmanship as well as the fit.  AND your comapany was about $200.00 cheaper than anyone else I could find, on the internet or otherwise.  Most sailors are NOT independently wealthy (contrary to popular opinion) and I am spreading the word about your fine company.  I hope this small act will help you continue to offer the wonderful sail values that you offer now.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Carter

Dirk:  Just wanted to let you know I've had my boat out sailing a few times now.  The new genoa you supplied fit perfectly, sets and draws nicely, has great shape and looks good.  So if you have potential customers looking for referrals, you can use me - a very satisfied customer.

I received my sail today.  Thank you for your expeditious handling of my order.  Your quick service and your advice on choice of materials are much appreciated .

Thank you.

Charles King 

Thanks for a great job Dirk Sharland & Colleagues! Received my new spinnaker and storm jib today as per stirpes. Both sails look first class. I'm sure as soon as my wallet catches up with our re-fit, I'll be ordering a new genoa from your company.

Best,

Tallyho (John Carman & Janette Sawyer)

Dirk, hello.  It's been a few months since I ordered and received my new
120 for my Shannon ketch.  I did promise to let you know if I was
pleased.  I am completely satisfied with the sail.  No.....I am more
than satisfied.  It is perfect.  The workmanship is superior.  The cut
is perfect.
We've bought a new boat (keeping the Shannon).  When we need sails
(soon) we'll definately contact you.
Best of luck for a successful season.
Doug Oakley

Hi Dirk:

We went sailing on Saturday and the new sails worked great.  We like the black sunbrella fabric on the (rf) genoa, and the boat sailed really well.  You always kind of hold your breath whenever you do stuff long distance, but it sure worked for us.  If you ever need a testimonial for National Sails, just let me know. 

Thanks again!

Noel

Dirk-

Got the new sail Thursday and used it this weekend. It is wonderful. I received many complements and she looked beautiful flying in light air. I will certainly recommend you as a sailmaker to my friends.

Sincerely,
David Harcourt
