On the Right Tack
The Santana 22 is a classic example
of the durability of good design and
construction. First introduced over
40 years ago, the class is still going
strong.
This year the class racing schedule
consisted of a split season, and Tackful,
Frank Lawler and Cathy Stieroff’s
Santana, placed first in the first half
and second by one point in the second.
Tackful’s Pineapple mainsail was
built in 2000 and Pineapple class jib in
2001. More testament to the durability
of good design and construction.
Even when the economy isn’t weak,
sails that stand the test of time, keeping
their shape and strength, are a real
value. Stated tactfully, we believe our
sails succeed where others’ fail. Race
or cruise, we are committed to building
the best sails possible, carefully designed
and expertly constructed.
