Tanzer Association offering North Sails Again!

Happy New Year everyone!

If you own a Tanzer here is an offer that should make for a great way to get your 2007 season off to a super start. Your Tanzer Association is once again providing an exclusive deal from North Sails One Design in Canada. This offer is only for Tanzer owners who are members of the Class Association, and is open to all regardless of which country you reside in. Email me for the order form and list prices particular to your boat. If you own a Tanzer model other than the 22, 7.5, or 26, contact me, or Paul Davis at North, for details of your requirements and pricing.

Note that the prices indicated on the form are list prices. Members will receive a lower discounted price of at least 15%. If more than 25 sails are ordered, the discount will rise to 18%. If more than 35 sails are ordered, the discount will rise to 20%. If more than 45 sails are ordered the discount will rise to 22%. Last year, the Association’s group purchase was for more than 70 sails! If you live outside of Ontario, you will not pay provincial sales tax. If you live outside of Canada, I believe most if not all such members paid no tax or duties. In my experience, the shipping fees were inconsequential. No one’s order shall be processed until the number of sails and the corresponding final discount is known. You will then be contacted for confirmation and payment. The final (no exceptions) deadline to close and send our order is Feb. 9^th, so order much earlier, so as not to jeopardize spring delivery!

These sails were especially designed to conform to high quality standards and the one-design rules of the Tanzer 22 Class Association. Sails for the other Tanzers are built to the same high standards. Only the highest quality cloths, construction, and fast shapes were acceptable to the Class. There are a lot of reasonable economy products on the market, or high priced quality, or other good buys. However, your Association and North has done a lot of the work for you! Please contact me, or Paul at anytime to learn more about the features, and materials used. It is also important to specify any non-standard equipment that could affect fit when making your order. Last year, there were few problems reported, but different equipment, or types of roller furling gear can make a difference. Paul’s contact info is on the order form, and my email address is ralphstocek@yahoo.com.

All the best for 2007!
