Sailmakers to the Enigma Yacht Racing Team : North Sails UK

Since their introduction in 1994, 3DL sails have dominated the international racing circuit.  In that time they have been continually refined and developed. North sail designers have incorporated new developments into the very latest sail designs based upon experience gained from Americas Cup, global Offshore races and highly competitive Offshore One Design classes.

Their moulded construction utilises some of the most advanced computer control systems in the world. Complex moulds, sophisticated adhesives, superior yarns and advanced thread layouts produce an exceptionally smooth and stable sail shape.

North downwind sails have won more races than any design in history, not only because they are fast, but also they are easy to fly. All North sail panels are computer moulded, both horizontally and vertically, and are optimised with North's exclusive computer simulation software. The result is a shape that creates a smoother and more stable wind flow over a broader wind range.
