As Charles says, Honnor Marine used Hyde for sails.
Last year I got confused when at the Boat Show and thought it was Jeckell - hence my Yankee is Jeckell but all other sails are Hyde. The material is identical (hence colour match is perfect), and they had the sail plans on their computer, so I assume any decent sail maker will also.
Gary and I got a Boat show deal plus a discount for ordering several sails between us so I’m not sure of the proper price. I think their list was about £450 for a Yankee
The quality is excellent. I visited their factory near the Norfolk Broads and they are good people to deal with.
But perhaps too far north for you. In which case Hyde’s would produce equally good sails of course and I believe they are IoW or near the Solent
I imagine Nick Scroggs at Cape Cutter Marine would prefer you to order via him - certainly worth getting a price.
All the best
