The place in San Mateo used to be called Leading Edge. The last number I
have for them is 510-347-0795. I haven't used them in a while, and though
they did quality repairs, I found them a little pricey, somewhat arrogant
and more set up for yachters. If you go there, make sure your sail is dry,
free of sand/dirt, and don't leave your sailbag.

Joe Dihl at Davenport Surf and Sail does excellent repairs and is a great
guy. He can be reached at 831-429-6051. You can also buy windsurf stuff
from him at great (competitive with mail-order) prices.

Peter Scheibel in Santa Cruz also does excellent repairs and is a great guy,
and somewhat of a "known" figure in windsurfing (Waddell and Scheibel sails)
and kiteboarding (Caution! kites). You can reach him at 831-427-3269.
