CFJ sails
We built our CFJ sails starting with our successful experience designing a C420 wardrobe.
We kept the same philosophy, but adapted the program to the boat specific requirements – As a result, we have several variants of both the jib and the main meeting various needs across the country.
For the jib, we have a class legal version; and we also have a version that makes maximum use of the available forestay length for lighter wind venues, when class-legality is not required.
For the main, we have class legal versions for both the East coast and West coast boats (the West coast boats have a higher gooseneck which requires a shorter luff).
Both main sails are designed with a generous roach to the max allowed by class rules, to help balance the helm of the boat.
Our standard construction includes floating tack on the main, concave leech on the jib, big skirt, etc. We do offer many options to suit your needs, like a Vectran luff wire on the jib, traditional tack on the main, etc, most of those at no charge. Our cloth is a super durable 250g/sqm Dacron, heavier cousin of our sails for Laser®* cloth (a popular upgrade to 300 g/sqm is available for either (or both) the main and the jib).
And if you want to make the boat even more fun, we offer a durable spinnaker in a double ripstop nylon…
These sails are full of details that will ensure durability and ease of use in fleet and club environments – from the tack and reinforcement finishes, to the double velcro forced batten on the main and more.
The main is delivered with a tube bag, leech tell tales and battens.
The jib comes with leech and luff tell tales and a reinforced window.
Here is a detailed brochure for our CFJ sails.
We can also provide a reasonably priced team race package , including color-coded numbers, race stripes on main and jib, and school logo.
If you have a fleet to equip, contact us to discuss custom details and finishes, race numbers, institution logo, etc. We are looking forward to setting you up with the sails you need at a price you will love!
