DescriptionSquare-top mainsail developed for Ventilo 18 HT. The MNX6 laminated fabric combines high-strength fibres between two Mylar films treated against UV, offering an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and enhanced durability. The Cross Cut oriented layup with triradial reinforcements manages load paths and improves flow over the aerofoil.
Fibre battens and easy-to-use tensioners are supplied to quickly obtain the ideal camber and batten tension. The sail features 4 pennants/telltales on the body and 2 on the leech to monitor airflow.
The square-top shape provides depowering in gusts when the Cunningham is eased and recovers power downwind, delivering responsive handling and a refreshed appearance for the boat.
