Kendall: Try Sailcare http://www.sailcare.com/ for cleaning. I haven't had to use them myself as my M17 is fairly new but I have heard of others that were happy with the results. Good luck...

If it will and the fabric is good, can I stain the fabric rather than purchase new sails? I don't think I can make it worse than it is. I would just like to defer the cost of a new set until maybe next year. Or is there something that will absolutely clean them to almost new color? I'm willing to try just about anything.
