Any ideas where to get a sail insignia for a 26 MKII?

Thanks

I had Sail Care do mine (after they cleaned my sail).  Very nice job.  I believe they charged $25 per side.  You don't have to have them clean the sail, but I recommend that, too.

You won't find pre-made emblems, but your local sail loft should have stick on material made for this purpose.  Older lofts may have a pattern.  If not, there is a scaled pattern at

I used it to make a pattern and provided it to a local sail maker and had them cut it and apply it while the sail was in for some other repairs.

  You may need to scale it down to fit on your 26's sail.  Maybe another 26MkII owner can measure the shield's height and width.

Many sailmakers have the specific sail logos in piles. I would call a couple of sail lofts. Halsey Lidgard Sails (in Anacortes, WA) had a pretty impressive pile of Columbia sail crest patterns last time i was up there, but i don't remember if they had a C26 logo. If you just want it for looks in your house you might be able to find an image on the web or in an old advertisement or brochure.

Good luck,
