Well here we are and it’s mid way through the longest month of the year! We hope your New Year is pottering along as you’d expected and it seems that many of you are gearing up for the coming season with some new sails from us. The shop took many orders whilst we were away enjoying some family time and we returned last week to a mountain of orders for all manner of our goodies.

We have worked through the orders that arrived during the second half of December and are now manufacturing sail orders from the first week in January and should be caught up on nearly all the current orders by early next week when we will turn our attention towards the next trade order from our good friends at RC Yachts which will occupy a week or so.

This should see us to the last week of January without too much trouble and we’ll find time to manufacture any retail orders that come through the door in that time too.

The last week of January is usually a fun time, it’s my birthday which is always good because it means I’m still here and secondly it’s time to head out to the Nuremberg toy fair to catch up with the Joysway crew and have a few beers with friends from the industry. It’s a megamiles trip with Tuesday kicking off with a rip to Stanstead via Yorkshire, then out to Germany on Wednesday until late Thursday then Friday back to base from Stanstead via Yorkshire for a rest at the weekend!

If you need anything from our shop then it’s open 247 and we’ll fulfill the order as soon as we are able to. Sails are running at almost 2 weeks lead time from point of order to dispatch, accessories and RC Laser parts are usually despatched within 48 hours when ordered Monday – Thursday. We are still on winter hours and the workshop is open four days a week and closed Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Please find below a selection of sails we have manufactured so far this year.
