Every boat, large or small, which ventures into open water should, as part of its essential equipment, carry storm sails. The primary objective in designing a storm sail is to provide sufficient sail area to maintain handling ability without overpowering the boat in severe conditions. To withstand these conditions, the sail must be made to a high specification using heavy duty materials.
STORM SAIL FEATURES
Colour coded luff and corner patches
Specially chosen sail cloth to absorb shock loading
Heavy duty Molybdenum stainless steel cringles
Seams cut parallel to leech to withstand shock loading
