Maxikote Professional quality fabric for asymmetric spinnakers on light-weight racing boats Since 1995 the winners of the Americas Cup have always chosen the superior quality of Contender spinnaker cloth for their downwind sails. This is also the case with the winner of the most recent Volvo Ocean Race! To produce cloths of this standard, Contender works closely with their ﬁber producers, weavers and the outstanding German ﬁnishing company KBC. Thanks to this close co-operation and constant consultation with sailors and sailmakers all over the world, we have built up an unrivalled knowledge and understanding of spinnaker cloth. Maxikote spinnaker fabric is woven with polyester yarns and ﬁnished with our very stable and durable polyurethane coating. The result is that Maxikote has very little elasticity and makes very form-stable sails due to its low stretch. The stability and the range of weights of the Maxikote series are designed so that your sailmaker can combine different weights of compatible cloth to achieve the best strength/weight ratio for your spinnaker. Maxikote is especially designed to meet the speciﬁc performance requirements of asymmetric spinnakers on the latest generation light displacement yachts, dinghies and catamarans.
