Hood Sails have been winning regattas and races, including the Americas Cup, since 1952. Today Hood's highly experienced sail-designers, aided by the very latest software, will work with you to build fast sails.
Hood specialise in designing and building racing sails for club racing, classic yachts, short-handed racing (single-handed and double handed) and one-designs that mandate woven sailcloth.
Every sail is individually designed, using the very latest software, taking into account: the exact specification of your rig; how and where you sail; the abilities of your helmsmen and crew; and your budget. Hood Sail Consultants are then available to sail with you to help set-up your sails in order for them to deliver their maximum potential. We then keep you sail design on our database so that, when the time comes for a replacement, we can build either: a perfect replica or, if you require changes, we can fine tune the design to your exact requirements. |

Bill's Asymmetrical Cruising Spinnaker
The innovative Asymmetrical Cruising Spinnaker adds more performance to your cruising inventory than any other sail. Bill molds the spinnaker in three dimensions on the computer based on his America's Cup design development experience. His highly efficient cruising design, slightly smaller than the racing sail, has a tri-radial panel layout with radial reinforcements for strength, durability and low weight. Our easy-to-use spinnaker is versatile, helping to keep your engine off in calm weather.
Your confidence in using it in heavier weather will increase as you learn that its deep entry decreases your boat's oscillations and it performs efficiently from a beam reach to a broad run. Raising and lowering the Asymmetrical Spinnaker can be handled easily by one person with our snuffer-a full-length sleeve that contains the sail while it's hoisted and doused. We encourage customers to have fun in selecting the colors and patterns for their asymmetrical spinnakers. |

| The asymmetrical spis are used in race on boats having a very good capacity of acceleration which justifies the increase in roads of these spis which sail between 100 and 150° of the real wind. One finds these spis on the 747, Melges 24, J80 and minis 650 and other fast boats. Just like the symmetrical spis, these spis must also be drawn according to the use and of the characteristics of the boats for which they are intended. |
