I fly my burgee next to my ‘squirrel’ weather vane over the roof of my garage here in Sheffield. They have a short life as our crows, magpies and jackdaws frequently use them to perch on or peck at!... See more

Super fast execution of the order. It's just too bad that it was held up by the customs for a couple of days. Very sorry for Sailingfast that Brexit happened, they would be number 1 for spare parts... See more

Checked various internet outlets for this rigging component. Sailingfast had the best availability and sensible delivery charge. Some other popular outlets had ridiculous hidden postage cost.

Hi Jonathan, thanks for the review. The website calculates shipping automatically and doesn't always get it right. I'm glad to see it did this time but if you get something that looks steep, feel free to drop us a line and we can check it for you.
Thanks, Emma

Really quick to respond to emails and incredibly helpful on the phone also

Thanks Gemma :-)
The ordering and shipping experience…
The ordering and shipping experience was straightforward and speedy. However, the Ovi White gelcoat doesn't perfectly match my Ovi ILCA's color, appearing slightly grey, though not as grey as the newer models.

Hi Douglas, thanks for the review. Gelcoat match is a tricky one. Boats discolour over time through UV and other environmental factors which means a perfect colour match is unlikely, but will be close.
If you wish to pop some photos over to us, happy to bring this up with Ovingtons for feedback purposes.
Many thanks, Emma

Thanks Ruth! Hope to see you at the Nationals. :-)
Gelcoat colour match poor
Order process and delivery process was simple and quick. Unfortunately the Ovi White gelcoat is not a good colour match with my Ovi ILCA, being a slight grey colour but not as grey as the more recent built boats.

Hi John, I'm sorry you are disappointed with your gelcoat. I have sent you an email asking for photos and to be honest your sail number would be helpful, so we can establish if you have ordered (and been sent!) the correct gelcoat.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks, Emma
