From A$3,564 in Dimension-Polyant Optimum Cruise with 3 leech battens and a full-length head batten, or A$3,764.20 with 4 full battens. C-Breeze, the long-life cloth, starts at A$4,579.30. Every mainsail is cut to the Forgus 38 DS rig (P 13.75 m, E 4.40 m) with two reefs.
We build 110% to 150% LP for the standard rig (I 15.25 m, J 4.20 m). Pick a smaller genoa for a windy home port and a larger one for light-air sailing. Furling genoas start at A$3,243.90.
A Size 6 (75 m²) asymmetric suits the Forgus 38 DS fore-triangle. It starts at A$2,125.20, or A$2,964.50 with a dousing sock.
The Offshore Special Regulations cap a storm jib at 5% of I squared (11.6 m² here) and a trysail at 17.5% of P × E (10.6 m²). That makes our Extra Large (9.5 m²) storm jib and Medium (7.8 m²) trysail the right sizes.
Measure I, J, P and E and compare them with the rig table. We confirm every measurement with you before the sail is cut.
For a race programme, a Sydney to Hobart or a bluewater expedition, our sister loft Kraken Sails designs laminates, membrane sails and storm wardrobes for the hard end of sailing.
