Tri Radiale Gaff Sail:
Type of construction only applies to vessels without fixed or modified backstay.
For boaters looking for performance.
The Full Batten allow a good control of the fall and prevents its fadeillement.
The additional batten allow to reduce the number of full batten while maintaining a good held at the top.
Several fabrics can be used for a large hoop sail in tri-radial section:
- DCX, DCP, DYS ..... (Dimension-Polyant) laminated Polyester
- Pro Warp Tech, Pro Hybrid (CONTENDER) woven for radial cuts
- Membranes Trilam ........
Our various suppliers offer many choices in order to adapt to your wishes.
We can also decline it in Cross Cut
The highlights of a Grand Sailing in Corne Tri Radiale:
- French manufacture in our workshop
- Increase of the surface of the sail
- More power
- Very good behavior of the profile over time (distribution of forces thanks to the orientation of the fabric)
- Horizontal battens facilitate handling when reefing and loosening.
- The sail is much better held than on a classic sail or battened sail.
- Roller or ball slides facilitate the maneuvering (less friction), even though the sail is heavier.
