Hi,
I've acquired two older boats that will need some parts. One will need a new sail....
I was going to order everything through SunFish Direct. Does anyone have any experience with this site? They happen to be in Southeast Michigan where I live so I can easily pick them up to avoid shipping costs.
Looking at a recent thread on here "Is this sail any good?", I came to the realization that when comparing sails, Sunfish Direct is significantly more expensive than say Intensity Sails.
When buying sails and parts in general, is there any advantage in terms of quality or durability if one were to buy from LaserPerformance.us? Which appears to be the OEM site?
I'm just trying to determine to go with OEM or "aftermarket" when it comes to buying parts for a Sunfish. I've have to believe that given how simple these boats are, that aftermarket is usually just fine.
I do not plan on racing, strictly recreational use.
Thanks!
