Not all of our second hand sails end up back on boats. Some sails are in an unusable condition, however these are still repurposed.
Artists
Many of our sails go to artists around Australia for various art shows and installations.

Kate Scardifield
Kate is another artist that has been a customer of Sail Exchange. Kate has used second hand spinnakers in her artwork The lighter a thought the more it rises. This was showcased at The University of Sydney's college of the arts The Fauvette.
