We’ll work closely with you to understand your sailing criteria, providing expert advice to guide your material selection and design a sail tailored to your needs.
At Dolphin our philosophy is to apply the same attention to detail no matter how large or small the boat, whether racing or cruising.
Where possible we will measure the boat’s rig, set-up characteristics, and discuss with you any personal preferences. Our experience with building racing sails enables us to bring a wide based knowledge to the design and construction of your cruising sails. This experience is invaluable for the production of sails with excellent shape holding, that help you to get to your destination as quickly as possible.
For enhanced shape holding, weight saving and speed, a tri-radial construction utilising the warp orientated laminated fabrics is employed.
Greater performance will be achieved with a Pentex laminate whilst Spectra/Dyneema will produce the ultimate in shape holding capability.
All sails are finished to a high standard, using a wealth of experience, to ensure long lasting, durable sails.
Sails designed, cut and built in house.
A mizzen sail is a smaller triangular sail positioned on the aftermost mast of a boat.
It’s typically located behind the mainmast and can be used on various types of sailboats, including those with ketch or yawl rigs, and even three-masted schooners.
The mizzen sail provides an additional source of propulsion and can help with steering and balancing.
The mizzen mast and sail are located aft (behind) the mainmast.
Mizzen sails are typically triangular in shape, but they can also be gaff or other configurations depending on the boat’s rigging.
