After testing our FX One in a squall out in the Port Royal Sound off HHI we had sustained a leech tear between the 2nd and 3rd battens up from the bottom. We figured sailing for the remainder of our holiday week was over, and we would either have to mail or drive the sail to a loft in Charleston, Savannah, or back to Atlanta. Not so fast! A local marina pointed us in the direction of a Quantum sail loft right on HHI. Jim Stubbs is the owner and operator and a major sailing enthusiast. Here is the amazing part, we drop off the sail mid-day Monday and he has it ready Tuesday morning! Unbelievable! He did some evening work to get it done on top of the multitude of other sails, canvas and other custom work the loft has in progress. When have you ever heard of a vendor being ready before the customer? (we didn't pick it up until later in the day...sorry) The repair is fantastic, the Quantum kevlar is quite remarkable material.
So if any of you are ever in a similar situation on or near HHI just reach out to Jim Stubbs at 843.342.6612 office / 843.247.1424 mobile or email
