Vectrix

Product catalog summary
Overview
Vectrix Membrane sails by Neil Pryde Sails are engineered using advanced software technologies that optimize yarn distribution across the sail. This approach allows for reduced yarn density in low-stress areas and increased density where needed, resulting in lighter and stronger sails with minimal deformation compared to traditional sails. The integration of design software ensures that the latest design philosophies are incorporated into the sails.

Construction
The sails are constructed using Aramid and carbon fibers, which are applied to UV-stable films. These are then sealed with two-sided laminators and ovens to ensure strong film-to-film bonds that resist delamination while maintaining a good feel.

Features
Vectrix sails come equipped with essential racing features such as draft stripes, tell tails, insignias, Vectran leechline, and cunningham, making them ready for competitive use.

Yarn Types
The sails utilize various yarn types and combinations based on boat size and application, including:
  • Aramid
  • Technora/Aramid
  • Carbon/Technora

Vectrix-1

Vectrix Membrane Sails Overview Our Vectrix Membrane sails are designed and built around new software technologies, which allow Neil Pryde to ‘string’ the flying membrane of the CAD-designed sails with a variety of yarn types and in patterns that match the loads generated throughout a particular sail type. This technology allows us to reduce the yarn density in low load areas of the sail and putting a higher yarn density only where it needs to be. This careful engineering result in lighter, stronger sails that have less deformation of the design shapes than conventional constructed sails. This technology is seamlessly integrated with our design software, which allows the latest shapes and design philosophies of our designers to flow into this new technology. Vectrix sails are made using the latest Aramid and carbon fibers, strung on to U.V. stable films and sealed using two-sided laminators and ovens to produce exceptional film-to-film bonds. This construction will not delaminate, yet have an excellent hand or feel. As with all Neil Pryde Premier Plus racing sails, these sails are fitted with draft stripes, tell tails, insignias, Vectran leechline, cunningham…all the necessary items to race.
