Racing downwind sails : spinnaker and gennaker

Whether inshore or offshore, every campaign is unique

Each spinnaker is specifically designed and engineered for the programme for which it is required, and the wind range and angles it is to be used in. The fabric, shape and sail area are customised for each specific boat and visualised using Sailect by Adrena software (see diagram). The loft provides you with the "Sailect" chart for your sail.
