Our Mainsails
Mainsails come in many varieties including slab reefed, flat top, in mast and in boom furling sails. Our designers will help tailor the sail to your boat taking into account factors such as roach, tack set backs, reefing points, mast tracks, and bimini height. We have a range of quality luff hardware from all major suppliers to suit your mast sections, if you have invested in a car system we can also set up the sails to reuse your existing hardware.

Main Options

Main Options
We are committed to providing high quality sails, outstanding value, a seamless ordering process and industry leading after sales service
Full Batten Upgrade
The choice of full or partial battens will depend on the type of sailing you are doing, Full battens provide more stability for the mainsail in waves, when reefing and allow easier stowage whereas partial battens allow for a more dynamic trim and easier hoisting. If you are unsure our experienced team will guide you the best configuration for you.
Adjustable batten systems
We offer a range of leech closure options to enable batten adjustment free of charge. We can also upgrade the luff box to adjustable batten receptacles for increased batten tension control at a reasonable additional charge.
Additional Reefs
Our Sails come with 2 reefs as standard which should be sufficient for most coastal and leisure cruising. For offshore sailing or racing we would recommend for a third reef for security. It is also not uncommon to have a 4th reef which can be used an emergency reef to use in very high winds.
Sail Number & Insignia
We offer sail number and boat insignia free of charge for all your racing and cosmetic needs. We can also produce custom graphics for your boat which can be printed or placed on the sail insignia cloth for a reasonable additional charge
Crosscut Vs Radial
Both cross cut and radial designs with appropriate sailcloths may be used in the construction of mainsails. In general, radial designs will help the boat point higher and improve tacking angles they also work particularly well with furling mainsails as this type of cut and sailcloth stretches less over time heading off any potential furling issues caused by cloth stretch and fatigue as well as optimising the relatively lower roach profile of these sails. Cross cut designs and sailcloths offer a robust construction and more budget friendly alternative whilst still offering great durability and long term performance.
Our experienced team will help guide you through the advantages and disadvantages of each depending on your rig, sailing needs and budget.

Loose vs Fixed Foot
Normally we will use a modern and more dynamic loose footed mainsail design, which gives you significantly more control over the sail shape! The sail will be fixed at the tack and by way of slug on the clew ring of the sail, we also include a velcro strap in the bag which can be used to snug the clew to the boom. If you prefer a more traditional fixed foot we can of course also accommodate this at no additional charge
