No one wants their sail to fail. The Polyester Cruise Laminates by Bainbridge International will give you the performance you want at a cost you can afford while offering the stretch resistance and shape retention that you need.
It is constructed with a high-quality polyester fiber with a 0-90 load bearing scrim. Manufactured using special techniques, warp crimp is virtually eliminated. Layered in a double taffeta style to increase UV protection also adds the bonus of mildew resistance. This means your sail will last longer and still be easy to use and handle after miles in the sun. Because they are laminated on both sides, they will prove durable for navigating the ocean for racing or sheer pleasure.
If you are looking for a sail that will hold sail shape longer than traditional woven Dacron, this cloth will be a great choice. Tri-Radial design optimizes sail shape while the laminate and construction will maintain that sail shape longer into your sailing adventures.
Laminate sails have been in use for many years and the technology of making these types of sails has improved. When laminate racing sails first came on the scene the focus was on performance. By eliminating the woven fibers of Dacron sails and placing straight fibers within two Mylar films, stretch under initial load and over time was significantly reduced. These early laminate sails improved performance however they were prone to de-lamination and short useful life. Bainbridge Polyester Cruising Laminate has the addition of Taffeta on either side of the sail to reduce de-lamination from chaffing.
