All sails are manufactured by Gaastra (world renown for its high quality windsurfing sails) using Dimension Polyant fabric from the USA. The main and jib sails are constructed from X-PLY which is a top of the range Mylar/fiber laminated cloth that is durable and holds its shape well. This transparent cloth gives the skipper high visibility improving safety. The gennaker (screecher) is constructed from S/DLN150 – a high quality, non-stretch, rip-stop spinnaker cloth that comes in a variety of bright colors.
