Anybody have any expierence with Peak Sails? Ordered a sail they had in stock on the 11th and haven’t been able to get through by phone or email since. My card did get charged, hoping it’s a real company at this point

Just saw some reviews that make me think I made a bad decision. If I don’t hear back by tomorrow I’ll dispute the charges. Anyone got a nice used white main for a Hobie 16 that could be here in a week? I don’t need battens -

Jalex, How did you order from Peak Sails? I haven't heard about them for years and thought they were out of business, although the owners have a history of closing, changing names, and opening again. They were Kelly Hanson Sails too, who also had a kind of dicey reputation.
Their Better Business listing shows them closed

Website shown there doesn't work.

Damon, I ordered from their website which looked very legit. I still have not heard from a real human but it looks like I will get my money back. I do try and use your sponsors whenever I can -

I had several good experience with SLO, tramp and tramp cover. Specific to G-cat 5.7 sails, I bought a new main and jib 10 years ago from Super Sailmakers. Quality and service were great. G-cat mast lengths vary, and the luff was too long on the sail I received. Certainly, could have been my fault. They modified it for free and it seemed to work fine on that boat.
