From A$5,515.40 in Dimension-Polyant Optimum Cruise with 3 leech battens and a full-length head batten, or A$5,795.90 with 4 full battens. C-Breeze, the long-life cloth, starts at A$7,273.20. Every mainsail is cut to the Hunter 45 DS rig (P 14.17 m, E 6.32 m) with two reefs.
We build 110% to 150% LP for the standard rig (I 14.61 m, J 4.47 m). Pick a smaller genoa for a windy home port and a larger one for light-air sailing. Furling genoas start at A$3,523.30.
A Size 7 (83 m²) asymmetric suits the Hunter 45 DS fore-triangle. It starts at A$2,352.90, or A$3,227.40 with a dousing sock.
The Offshore Special Regulations cap a storm jib at 5% of I squared (10.7 m² here) and a trysail at 17.5% of P × E (15.7 m²). That makes our Extra Large (9.5 m²) storm jib and Maxi (15.5 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.
