[quote=samc99us]Very few builders still fabricate in the U.S. Chip does from time to time, as do Glaser and EP. My biggest issue with EP over the years has been quality control. I'm not sure how SLO is in this regard, nor do I know how fast their sails are. The Pentex Jib Chip built for my Hobie 18 was a very fast sail across all wind ranges.
The Glasers are arguably the best in the business in terms of quality control, and design fast sails. They charge a premium as a result, even though they will work with you on pricing if you batch order so they can do the production overseas, otherwise they may build in their loft if they have the availability.[/quote]
