Sailright Sailmaker

Important for hand sewing jobs
Essential supplies

We have a sailmaker's sewing machine and lots of supplies so repairs can be done to fix almost any sail or canvas problem. We also sew all of our own courtesy flags and this is often a fun project on an otherwise boring passage.

Sailing Proa of Papua new Guinea


Headed for the pass in the reef, this proa will tack all night in the open ocean to reach Snake Passage. God bless them on their journey
