From A$5,019.30 in Dimension-Polyant Optimum Cruise with 3 leech battens and a full-length head batten, or A$5,269 with 4 full battens. C-Breeze, the long-life cloth, starts at A$6,493.30. Every mainsail is cut to the X-Yachts X-40 rig (P 15.70 m, E 5.60 m) with two reefs.
We build 110% to 150% LP for the standard rig (I 16.40 m, J 4.33 m). Pick a smaller genoa for a windy home port and a larger one for light-air sailing. Furling genoas start at A$3,597.
A Size 7 (83 m²) asymmetric suits the X-Yachts X-40 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 (13.5 m² here) and a trysail at 17.5% of P × E (15.4 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.
