Zeeland Sailmakers
Cutting sails on the Westerschelde since 1987

We cut, sew and repair sails for cruising boats and classic rigs on the Dutch coast.

Sail loft in Vlissingen. New cruising sails, recuts and repairs for classic rigs.

What we do

New sails

Cross-cut and radial dacron for cruising. Measured aboard, not from a form.

Recuts

Shape restored on tired sails — often two more seasons for a fraction of new.

Repairs

Seam and batten pocket work, UV strip replacement, hardware refit. Winter turnaround two weeks.

The studio

The loft floor is nineteen metres, long enough to lay out most cruising mains in one piece. Three sailmakers, one of whom has been here since the loft opened. We service boats from Vlissingen to Enkhuizen and haul sails from further when the owner asks.
