Found this on the Fb page of a Dutch sailor who lives in China, working for a very large sailmaker. Wilfersail.com
The pic was taken a few months ago after opening their new factory.
Having wrestled to re-stitch a sail on a four-foot high workbench, I'm envious of those workers' "cubes"!
Now that I think of it, I was once a "bench-worker". The space next to me was assigned to a longtime Cuban immigrant. I referred to his space as a "Cubacle" which he appreciated. .
Can't tell if it's a knock-off or not. Just an interesting pic. That supports my belief that all those expensive sails are made in one or two (three?) Chinese factories for next to nothing.
