From A$4,021.60 in Dimension-Polyant Optimum Cruise with 3 leech battens and a full-length head batten, or A$4,229.50 with 4 full battens. C-Breeze, the long-life cloth, starts at A$5,280. Every mainsail is cut to the Stevens 42 rig (P 14.02 m, E 4.57 m) with two reefs.
We build 110% to 150% LP for the standard rig (I 16.16 m, J 5.00 m). Pick a smaller genoa for a windy home port and a larger one for light-air sailing. Furling genoas start at A$4,356.
A Size 8 (94 m²) asymmetric suits the Stevens 42 fore-triangle. It starts at A$2,656.50, or A$3,602.50 with a dousing sock.
The Offshore Special Regulations cap a storm jib at 5% of I squared (13.1 m² here) and a trysail at 17.5% of P × E (11.2 m²). That makes our Maxi (12 m²) storm jib and Large (10.8 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.
