The team at North Sails Charleston have helped us to maintain our sail inventory in racing shape. Rich Bowen developed a crossover spinnaker for point to point racing that filled the gap between a code zero and the one design VMG spinnaker and has really helped us with upwind rig tune and sail shape set up. John Bowden really helped us time the replacement/upgrade of our sails in an organized and cost-effective way. Ervin Grove custom designed a keel up and keel down boom cover which saves us time every time we use the boat.-John Lucas, Melges 32
