SAIL FEATURES FRED Fast Rigging Easy Doing FRED will help you to find the optimal luff trim for your sail. The mark is found in the upper sail window and serves as an orientation point to create the perfect luff tension (loose leech). SLEEVE VOLUMER The Gun Sails logo that is sewn on the sleeve keeps it open at the boom opening area like a clip and thus mast insertion is much easier. SLEEVE GUARD The mast sleeve of all camless sails is reinforced in the batten area in order to avoid abrasion. BOOM POSITION CONTROL The printed height scale at the boom opening helps you to easily remember...

An additional sewed on top patch avoids wrinkles while rolling the sail up. The top opening was enlarged for an easier mast insertion. The adjustment buckle is placed behind the mast; unnecessary webbing can be stowed in the top opening. The large reinforcement with attached PVC edging at the sail top avoids abrasion and wearing out whilst rigging. MINI BATTENS Lightweight mini battens take control of the leech while twisting and avoid detrimental leech flutter. In this way, the window fabrics are spared and the longevity of the sail is predefined. OFFSET CLEW The Wave sails are equipped...

WAVE & FREEMOVE SAILS R: Nicola Spadea - P: Jérôme Houyvet - L: Maui SAIL PROFILE The profile follows the range of use and the characteristics of a sail, which was determined at the beginning of the development. The sail designer can decide whether the profile of a sail will be fixed in the upper area or in the lower part and he can define the profile deepness. A further aspect for influencing the profile and the profile stability is the number, configuration and type of the battens or the use of cambers. On the graphics you can see the distinctive profile of the stated sails. TRANSWAVE...

BLOW FROM R: Camille Juban - P: Jérôme Houyvet - L: Maui Light, radical and powerful. With the 4-batten sail BLOW we have extended our wave sail line with a real "easy to handle jewel”. Short luff, compact boom length, excellent drive and 100% X-Ply construction, you need nothing else to handle all kind of waves. You will be surprised with the impressive acceleration and the early planing of the BLOW. As for the top speed and wind range, it will do as well as the Steel, whereas it will feel lighter and easier than the Steel. You will also notice the moderate mast curve and low luff tension...
