SAIL SHAPING

Our standard sail shaping will be retained for production sails (termed F2 shaping) and the common variations from this (F1 – flatter; F3, and F4 – progressively fuller) are the common alternatives.

F1 sails have approximately 17% less camber than F2.

F3 sails have approximately 17% more camber than F2 and F4 have approximately 33% more camber than F2.

Generally fuller sails, and fuller headsails, work better in waves whereas flatter sails work better on flat water.
