George grew up in San Diego racing Stars, Lasers and Snipes. As a kid, he made sails for his model boats before eventually taking a part-time job with Quantum during high school and college. He came on full-time in 1993 as a sailmaker and designer.

Using the latest computer design programs, George is able to create the fastest, most efficient sails for smaller One Design boats. This technology, combined with his intimate understanding of One Design sailing, allows him to create the most versatile sails available. The San Diego loft designs a variety of One Design sails, including Thistle and Lido 14, but their specialties are Olympic Class Star and Snipe boats.

George is the 2009 Star World Champion, as well as an 21-time National/North American Champion. In addition to his sail-making abilities and wins, he is also an accomplished keelboat tactician and trimmer.

A southern California native, Eric Grigsby has always been attracted to the water and boats. He couldn't shake the fascination, so he started working at a sail loft in 2003. What really captured his attention was big boat sail production, and he's been doing it ever since.

Eric joined the Quantum Sails family with more than a decade of sailmaking experience, including everything from sail layout and decoration for small racing and cruising boats to the custom manufacturing of sails for 60-100 foot boats. He's also built world-class racing sails, including the upwind sails for Puma Ocean Racing for the 2008-09 Volvo Ocean Race and upwind sails for +39 Challenge for the America's Cup.

As the Loft Service Manager at Quantum San Diego, Eric combines his years of experience with Quantum's high-quality service model to provide positive experiences for his clients. "My number one goal is to make sure customers have a better experience here than anywhere else," said Eric. "By acting professionally and providing our best work, our customers will receive the highest level of craftsmanship throughout the whole experience."
