How to choose this product

An asymmetric spinnaker is a headsail which can be flown closer to the wind than a symmetrical spinnaker.

Applications

Any boat can fly an asymmetric spinnaker, monohull, multihull or sailing dinghy. Racing monohulls require a jibboom.

Technologies

This sail is usually made of nylon. Unlike the symmetrical version, it requires no spinnaker pole. It will be attached to a jibboom or the bow on a monohull and to the windward hull or ama of a multihull. It can be flown as close as 80° off the wind, depending on its cut. On the other hand, it is less efficient running directly downwind.

How to choose

Choice will depend on mast height, halyard and luff length. Material weight will be determined by sail area and the anticipated points of sail.

Advantages

- Can be flown closer to the wind
- No pole means simpler jibing

Disadvantages

- Less downwind capability
- May require a jibboom
