Full Batten Radial Main Sail:
This construction is ideal for boaters seeking a good compromise between performance and durability.
The full-batten battens provide good leech control and prevent sail sagging.
The fabric fibers are oriented in the direction of the dominant load.
Several fabrics can be used for a full-batten mainsail with a tri-radial cross-section.
The Strengths of a Full Batten Sail Radial Sailing:
- Price / performance / pleasure ratio, unbeatable with our selection (DCX or Pro Warp Tech)
- 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.
