| | on my 39' - a stays'l and a main. The stays'l experience was just fine and gave me the confidence (which proved unfounded) to order a main. The mains'l experience wasn't totally horrible but certainly bad enough to cause me never to consider a sail from them again. And, for what its worth, to regard their company name with considerable irony. Fortunately there are professional sailmakers in my area easily capable to correct their but that does bring the final cost of one of their up to what it would have been simply to have a real build it to begin with. That being said this was about six years ago, long enough to probably be irrelevant. | | 19-12-2021, 03:42 | | | | stopper for me right out of the gate.

| from them. The headsail is perfect, the main had 4 slides that were the wrong size. They contacted a local loft ( UK Sails in Alameda ) and had it corrected in one day. So no problem there.
The ordering process was easy and my frequent calls were always answered right away. If the person I needed to talk to was not available they got back to me the same day and most times within 30 min.
As far as quality goes we have only had the sails on the a few months and all is well. We tend to reef late and the boat hard at times so next year I can update how the sails held up. Some days we are the only sailboat out on bay, we are not fair boaters.
At this point I would buy from them again. | | | | | 19-12-2021, 13:34 | | Boat: O'Day 40

It is really pretty simple. Do not say or even infer you are building what you are selling.
It is dishonest and that is a game stopper for me right out of the gate.

| to , though the loft assured me that they could get it to me easily within my deadline. Even better it seemed, because folks from their loft were going to be in where they had several customers all ordering new sails, they offered to take the measurements themselves for all of these while they were in the area, mine included. Sounded great. Indeed the did arrive three weeks before I was due to depart, however the sail was fully THREE feet too long in the luff and about 9" too long in the foot (quite the "precision" that was). I sent it back, asked for a refund, which they refused to offer and instead said they would get me a properly cut sail by my departure date, now using my measurements of course. The sail did arrive, cost me a week's delay, and was still two inches longer in the luff than I had specified. Worse, the shape was perfectly horrible, resembling as delivered what you would expect with a blown out sail years beyond its date. I ended up using the old sail which had a far better shape though 12 years old, than the new sail from Precision. When I got back home several months later my old main really was at the end of its life, so I bent on the Precision main again and enjoyed the experience of seeing it stretch even worse with light use until I took it to the local Ullman loft. Ullman did an excellent job in recutting the sail so that my boat could actually go to windward with that main better than the replica 16th century galleon I also sail frequently. That was two years ago and so far it hasn't blown out of shape so I'm happy thus far. The total cost ended up being about the same as if I had Ullman build the sail to begin with and I'm pretty sure they would have done a much better job on other details of construction, such as actually triple stitching seams instead of just for that feature and not doing it. I've bought other sails on line over the years and been satisfied, but I've decided that from now on with yacht sails its just a more certain process and more value to deal directly with a local loft that resides in the community it services. | | | | | 21-12-2021, 06:11 | | Boat: Morgan Out Island 41

Precision 21' - self righting ?- Thread starter Bluenoser
- Start date Aug 9, 2020
- Brand-Specific Forums
Purchased a 98 Precision 21' and having lots of fun but am a little concerned about what might happen if I get heeled over a little too far in a good wind gust. Grandkids just like to hang out in the cabin, so I'm thinking maybe they shouldn't be in there in strong winds. Any comments are greatly appreciated.  It will round up into the wind assuming you are over canvased, nobody will be happy and people could get hurt being thrown from one side to the other. I would not sail in sporty conditions first with small kids, and I would already have my main reefed and keep a hand on the travler line.  How much can I push a precision 21?

Thoughts on the Precision 23I have been looking and researching many different kinds of boats, from daysailers to pocket cruisers up to 26 feet in length. One that has caught my attention is the Precision 23. It is a trailerable pocket cruiser, weighing 2495 lbs dry. With trailer and 500lbs of gear, could weigh in at 4000 lbs, within reach of a mid-size SUV or truck. Reviews that I have read state that mast stepping can be done by one person (better with two people) in less than 30 minutes, and launching and retrieval are relatively easy. Does anyone on these boards have any experience, or knowledge of the Precision 23, and what would you see as its strengths and weaknesses. Is this a good boat for weekend cruising? Thanks in advance.  You could do a lot worse than a Precision 23. They are well built and well laid out pocket cruisers. And don't forget to check the boat reviews.

Merit 22- Oregon lakes. Jun 11, 2017. #1. I'm afraid I may have to sell my beloved Victoria 18 soon, as my wife just doesn't feel comfortable in it. the Vic is only 5.5' wide, so it is initially tender. With the 550b keel it firms up solid as a rock beyond 15* or so, but she just doesn't feel secure in it regardless.
14. Precision P23 perdido key florida. Jan 16, 2012. #1. I recently purchased a 2005 Precision 23. Took it out for our first sail this past weekend. Coming from a Compac Legacy 16ft, which is a terrific and tough boat. The cabin design of the 23 was so great as to use as much space as possible. Even though there is only about 51 inches of ...

I think the precision 15 fits the bill pretty good. The only thing I'm not sure of is if I should get the keel or centerboard version. The center board draws 3' 8" and the keel 1' 9". I don't have a depth problem at any local lakes with either boat. The keel will be harder to launch, but still should be pretty easy at normal boat ramps and will ...
Precision makes nice boats... By the square footage their layup is lighter than a Catalina, and ever so slightly so than a Hunter. They have a reputation as a good boat builder though, I've been on their 15, 165, and 18 (and 23) and found them to be nice sailing boats, and generally less expensive than Hunter or Catalina.
Private sales of Precision-specific items are appropriate. 2. Focus on sailing. Facebook is can be a great (or horrible) space for political discussion. Let's keep this group focused on building a supportive community of Precision sailors. A space for sharing experiences, seek advice, and enjoying sailing with Precision Sailboats.

Great discussion with the designer after submitting the measurements. The entire process was efficient and resulted in great sails for my boat.

If you check the sailboatdata site you will find information on the Precision models and many other sailboats. Notably, the 185 hull had been built in two different designs: a Centerboard model which (I think) has a very light centerboard like the Precision 18 we owned and a keel model with 3.5 ft draft and 375 pound ballast.
As of last week I almost went to North Carolina to buy this one> 2006 Precision Boat Works 165 sailboat for sale in North Carolina I love my Catalina Capri 14.2, but I would love to have something a bit bigger with a cabin. I ended up having a friend talk me out of the P165.

I believe it is an older model since the hatch is on the foredeck rather than on the bulkhead on the front of the cockpit as show on the current website but the rigging and sails appear to be in pretty good shape.

Jun 8, 2004. 10,185. -na -NA Anywhere USA. Jul 16, 2015. #3. AS a former dealer and owner of a Precision 15, it in many ways has more room than longer daysailors and is built well. Heeling no more than 12 degrees, you will go fast as there is less wetted surface or friction when sailing flatter vs. heeled way over.

The Seaward has more room than the Precision, but the Precision is arguably a more performance oriented boat. However, "more room" is subjective.
