Storm Tri Sail - Designed by Precision Sails

A Trysail is hoisted instead of a mainsail and allows sailors to navigate adverse conditions and heavy winds by providing enough thrust to maintain control of the ship. The streangth and solidity of this sturdily designed sail, developed from special heavily constructed Polyester, makes it suitable for both racing and off-shore cruising. It is highly recommended that storm sails be of a highly-visible coloured material.

Storm Sail Features:

3 step zig-zag seaming

Heavy duty bonded UV thread on patches and tabling

Reinforced triangular seam wedges at leech for extra leech strength

Half moon protective patch sewn at hank or slide position on luff

Luff and leech bands underneath tapes

Double tapes with double stitching

Straight stitching on corner webbing for greater streangth

Heavy duty Rutgerson Super rings of Spectra webbing corners

Three hand sewn rows in webbing above each corner ring for added corner integrity

All slides and cleats are hand sewn
