Default custom sails

Hi,
I'm new to the forum so bare with me. I have a Compass 791-1, Unfortunately I have had problems with the main sail pulling the ring out of the sail that attaches to SR1. I was wondering if someone knew of a company that makes stronger sails for this model of boat. I am new to RC sailboats and enjoying my time so far. Looking forward to stepping up to a better boat but at this time this is working for me.
Thanks for your time. Gary

I use scotch tape to repair sail rips etc. Try this first. Carr Sails makes sails for most boats. It is unknown what you mean by SR1. If it is a mast ring, just put tape on both sides of the sail and make a new hole and tie the sail to the mast with a short cord, leaving a small space for sail movement.

Thank you for your reply. SR1 is the location from the instruction manual, sorry I'm not sure of the terminology.
