BUYING A NEW SAIL IS A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT
See what hundreds of our happy customers have say:

Great Sails. Great service. When it comes to buying new sails, you need a supplier that will give you a quality product and great service as well. Purchasing new sails is a big investment and you need to get it right. When our sails failed in the Pacific, we needed to measure the boat and current sails in order to be able to purchase replacements. Not easy when you don’t have a sail loft! The team at Rolly Tasker Australia did a great job in talking us through the process and answering all our questions quickly and efficiently . The quotation was fast and contained all the information we needed to choose the extras and place the order. Once ordered, they continually updated us with the manufacturing progress and then once the sails were shipped, tracked them through the journey to Tahiti where we had agreed they would be delivered. The sails arrived ahead of schedule and were even delivered to our boat in the marina.. An absolute 5 star service.

I recently bought a lazy jack boom bag and the product received is fantastic. It looks great when it is all packed away, and so easy to use single handed. I followed the measurements on the online order-form and it all fitted up perfectly.
Thanks guys!

A friend of mine referred me to Rolly Tasker Australia after we spoke about me wanting some new sails. Greg and Sam really seem to understand customer service and have been absolutely amazing. I got my brand new sails and not only that - I also got them to do my rigging. I’ve struggled a lot to find a rigger that actually is willing to do some work on my old 25ft yacht. It seems that most companies want to only deal with the top end of the market. Not so Greg and Sam. I think I must have rung them 20times to ask all sorts of random question and asked for customisation. They made me feel I’m a pain and were super helpful all the way along. I shall post some pictures once I have test sailed them :-)
Thank you Greg and Sam for your outstanding 5-star service!! You guys are amazing!

I experienced the best service possible with a legendary company. Derrick Warne was exceptional to ensure I received top quality and support. He said Leo please call me directly anytime, and this was the case as I kept calling him. A true sailer very professional and a knowledgeable gentleman. He pursued any information he couldn't answer within the tasker team for my mainsail, trysail, screecher and deck gear. I am a huge fan of the late legendary Rolly Tasker and find all who work for Tasker Sails feel the same. Hooray.

I was very happy with the service from Rolly Tasker Australia.Discussion with Greg around the design of my sails was very helpful. Pricing was better than other quotes and the quality of the finished product is excellent.

Very professional company and excellent customer services. We ordered a main sail and boom cover for our Hunter 29.5 through Greg Newton. He came to take measurements and was a pleasure to deal with. We received the new sail within expected timeframe but there was an issue with the cut: the roach was much less than envisaged for a B&S rig with no backstay, and the foot was too long, leaving no room to use the outhaul. After raising the issue with Greg, he investigated and discovered a printed error on the online Hunter 29.5 manual and rig specs. I sent the sail back to RT and we received the correctly cut sail just a few days later, at no extra cost. Highly profesional treatment by Greg and RT, making the customer -myself- feel comfortable at all times! On my own experience I would certainly highly recommend Greg and Rolly Tasker!

I ordered a new mainsail, genoa and Code '0' with pole for my Lagoon 380 in Fremantle to replace the twenty year old sails. The ordering process was very simple. Rolly Tasker Sails Australia sent a measurement form to complete. I engaged a professional to ensure these were taken correctly. The new sails turned up as scheduled some weeks later and all fitted perfectly! I have subsequently also ordered and received a new spinnaker. I have now sailed almost 1,000nm with the new rig and my boat performs amazingly! Thank you guys :)

I needed a new jib for my Catalina 380. The guys at Rolly Tasker were very helpful (and patient - there were a few months between my first enquiry and my order). It fits perfectly, the actual process was pleasant, quick and professional. Their pricing is competitive, but my impression is that quality is not compromised.

The staff are very friendly and helpful and the sails are great. This is my second order as I renovate sail boats. I expect they won't be the last. Thankyou.

I needed to replace the boom sail bag on my Lagoon 380. The measurement form was easy to use with detailed explanation. I received a prompt email response and had the order confirmed. The parcel was delivered within a couple of weeks ahead of expected manufacturing time. It was well packed with a bonus drawstring bag which will be very useful. The quality and detail in the stitching and other components is impressive. Installation instructions were easy to follow, and all components were well labelled. It was actually fun and exciting fitting the boom bag. The zip is sturdy and easy to align and close. Feels like it will last for years. I had a big issue with birds getting into my previous boom bag and nesting in the sails. This boom bag fits snugly and has flaps which completely block access to the inside - I haven’t had a single bird get in which I am so happy about. My experience has been very positive and doubt I will go elsewhere when I need to replace sails.
Thank you again for the great service and quality product.

I purchased an asymmetrical spinnaker and a Gale sail from RT. Greg was really helpful with his advise and recommendations. The sails arrived promptly and are great quality - also very competitively priced. I will definitely use them again.

I know we over do the term "wow factor" these guys deserve that accolade! We somehow decided on the wrong item and the process of return and exchange could not have been easier, more prompt or accommodating. Very happy with the product and service, thanks Sam

Greg and the boys at Rolly Tasker Sails Australia were fantastic in helping me solve a logistical problem and they were able to produce a sail very rapidly that I needed and get it to France in record speed - thanks again -

Great responsive advice prior to sale and product is great. Thanks!
Grant Watkins

I originally had intended to upgrade my Catalina 270's furling head sail only and live with the original fully battened main for a few more years, but after one sail with my new 150 genoa I was blown away! The shaping is amazing and greatly reduces the time spent trimming and re-trimming. I opted for the Luff foam addition which allows for a more efficient partly furled sail. The power and ease of use left me with no choice but to bring forward the Main sail purchase. My New Rolly Tasker Sails really have given me an appreciation of how far Sail design has come. Thanks Greg for all your help with the boat visit, sure glad we measured the Main at the same time!! Regards Grant.W.

Hi Sam , we tried the new sail yesterday in the winter series. We were running a little late so didn’t have a lot of time to play before the race. The sail looks great, it’s a different boat in the lite . Up the first beat we performed well ,it was pretty average day wind wise. We also used the new kite as well ,very happy with that as well.

Already quite some time ago that we received our sails on time as promised, very impressed seen the current times.We’re very busy since then and did only a little bit of sailing but like you to know that we are very happy and impressed about the whole procedure and above all the quality and performance of the sails and the perfect fit. Many thanks for your assistance and whoever asks me i will certainly recommend Rolly Tasker.I don’t know if you are aware but i follow the channel of sailing yacht Florance. They made a very nice video about them set up with new sails in Thailand. Very informative and interesting and a testimony how the company deals with people.

Very helpful from the first phone call.
The product is very high quality and I'm confident in using it.
My boat is in Sydney but I live in Canberra so there were obviously going to be logistical considerations. Everything was able to be done without me being there. I actually joked to another boater at our mooring that I just provide my credit card number and I turn up to the boat and it's got new bits on it...

The sails also work really well!

The team at Rolly tasker are into the biz of sail making and understand the quote process and are really helpful with all stages.
I pay for Rolly tasker because I know the sails work.
Just all round good customer service.

Quick thank you for providing us with our new Mainsail. Size, shape, cut, reinforcing, are excellent. Still yet to get out for performance, which I have no doubt will be great going by marina set today.

Hi Sam
Forgot to let you know how the code 55 went. It’s fantastic had it out the other weekend in about 7 to 9knots sailing at about 60 degrees and not even trying were doing around 6.5 knots. We were sail with a 11.6 sea wind cat and our Bavaria 33 cruiser with the code 55 left him for dead. He wasn’t happy but we were. Great investment.

Hi Sam,
I received my Lazy Jack boom bag today, Thankyou.
I must say I was surprised at the high quality of the item as it surpassed my expectations.
It looks fantastic, I don’t believe I’ve seen one like this in the whole marina, so we’ll made. It’s really going to give our boat a facelift and I’m sure be the envy I’ve our marina neighbours.
I’ll definitely be passing this information on to the others.
Many thanks to both you and Greg. I can’t wait to order a new main

Yesterday we went for a shake down sail with the new sails and they look great, we had perfect conditions for testing the staysail with a couple of 20 knot gusts. The only sail we did not try out was the new spinnaker as we decided to wait for lighter winds to try that for the first time. Everything fits perfectly, the sail shapes look fantastic. The sails are excellent, the mainsail particularly is a work of art and has a beautiful shape, so much better than the old one! Please can you pass on our heartfelt thanks to your team at the loft, they have made us some wonderful sails. Thank you very much.

I would firstly like to extend my thanks to Rolly Tasker Sails for the quality sails you supplied for our Clipper 21 earlier this year. Up until the restrictions of COVID we were out on the water most weekends, and have been extremely pleased with the quality and performance of our new sails (which even helped see us to a 4th place on handicap in the 2020 Milang-Goolwa Freshwater Classic !).
Many folks down here have asked us about our new sails and we have been more than happy to provide a good recommendation, so much so that we would now like to add an asymmetrical spinnaker to the sail wardrobe.

I cannot wait to get new Main ,
If you can send me some business cards that would be great , your service has been excellent and I would like to pass that on.
As a past racer and now cruiser in North Queensland for over 35 Years I am constantly asked at the Marine where my boat is moored where I get my gear made as I keep my Boat pristine with only the best and latest gear and upgrades it will finally be great to have a sail maker I can recommend with confidence.

I just received your gift of sailing gloves, completely unexpected! Very nice, and a perfect fit. The sail boom bag continues to be a joy to use.
We’ll be back in touch when we look to replace our sails too. Having watched the manufacture of sails through the You Tube channel Sailing Yacht Florence, we were impressed by their quality.
Ross Turner - Hanse Yachts
Very pleased to report that the Cruising Code Zero you supplied for our Hanse 458 is superb – very pleased with the sail and prompt delivery so thank you for your efforts – it adds a stunning turn of pace to the boat so we’ll be highly recommending this to our future owners.
Dini and Pablo
Your customer service and shipping times were exceptional, keep up the good work!
John Rogers - Najad 490
It couldn’t have been easier. Think any buyer of the boat should have many years of good service with this sail and certainly last longer than the laminates.
Many thanks for your prompt service
David Seychell
The RFG – Sail I fitted last week however the breeze was fairly light and this weekend proved for perfect weather!
I am so far very impressed with the build quality of the sail, the stich, shape and size are all on que being a very professional job.
I am very impressed with the Roller Tasker build quality and would recommend to anyone at this point. The Graphics have also come up an absolute treat for scale and size, for a 100% satisfied customer.
Stephen Jones
Everything fitted up great, thanks for a really well made product and super service, the extra gift arrived in the mail and really was a surprise, thank you very much.
