Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the advanced design and manufacturing techniques used by Lidgard Sails to produce high-performance sails for racing and cruising sailors. It highlights the use of superior materials and technology to enhance sail performance, durability, and value.
Spinnakers: The spinnakers are designed with a radial panel configuration that aligns with loadings, using high-quality nylon fabrics developed in collaboration with a U.S. manufacturer. Key features include 150% more shaped panels, reduced seam slippage, greater vertical fairness, precise thread alignment, and shape stability. Lightweight patches and O rings contribute to lighter corners and faster sails.
Mainsails: Mainsails feature full-length battens allowing for a full-size roach without durability issues, eliminating flogging, and increasing fabric life. The sails are made from polyester/pentex fabrics, offering fast, durable, and superior value. The design includes a radial panel configuration for precise alignment and economic cross-cut options.
Reef Furl Genoas: These sails are designed for performance with features like a modern, pliable luff rope, furling marks, a luff flattening system, and lightweight Dacron UV covers. The design ensures optimal performance and protection when furled.
Design and Manufacturing: Lidgard Sails employs a 3D Sailmaker design system and Relax stress analysis program for designing sails from dinghies to mega yachts. Precision plotters and cutters ensure accuracy to the nearest 0.05mm, essential for high-performance sails.
Materials and Features: The sails use advanced materials and design features to enhance performance, including lightweight patches, stainless steel Rutgerson pressed rings, and polyester leech lines. The document also includes a spinnaker cloth color chart with various options.

New: O rings for the clews and head rings, these again are making for lighter corners and a faster sail. View of mould from masthead sail is completely fair in every 3D Sailmaker design system and the Relax stress analysis program are the premier programs of their type in use today. These programs are used in all new designs from dinghies to mega yachts to the smallest trysail and the largest spinnakers, all sails are designed and tested to bring out their optimum performance All Lidgard lofts have invested a lot of time and money on precision plotters / cutters, in doing so we are able to cut and plot our designs to the nearest .05mm, creating the accuracy that is needed when manufacturing high performance racing and cruising sails.
