I have a Cal 1-27 and I need a mainsail. My question is …Will just any mainsail work that has the proper dimensions ? The reason I ask is because I’m wondering if I can broaden my search horizon …I have been searching for " cal 27 mainsail for sale " and not getting much. Any words of encouragement would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Any sail with the same approximate dimensions will likely work but pay attention to the mast track slides and foot to make sure it’ll work on your mast and boom.

If you’re looking for a used sail keep an eye on Minney’s: http://www.minneysyachtsurplus.com/mainsails.html

If you’re looking for an inexpensive new sail have a look at Less Sails who can make you a brand new one for a reasonable price: http://www.leesails.com/

Thanks Todd. I eventually found one at Bacon Sails. They have a large selection for very reasonable prices.
