New Albacore sails are made by several lofts- Sobstad, North, JC and several others. If you want new Sobstads, contact John Duncan 301-299-5334.
For used sails, I'd suggest you contact some of the top sailors. They usually buy a new suit every few years and their old ones are still in good shape. Check the race results and try to contact the top 1/3 from some major regattas to see if they have any.
Unfortunately, I've sold out of my old suits (I have a main, I could sell, but no jib to match).
If you strike out, contact me again, and I'll try to think of some other sources.
: If you know where I can purchase a set of Albacore Sails, please let me know.
