Downwind Sails
Symmetrical or Asymmetrical?
Alegayter symmetrical spinnakers are ideal for the weekend sailor or serious racer.
Asymmetrical
spinnakers - also known as Gennaker or MPS, is a spinnaker with a luff that is longer than the leech, which means you don't need a
spinnaker pole.
Asymmetrical spinnakers are more commonly preferred for cruising boats as they are easier to use and when combined
with a spinnaker sock, it can be used in single or short-handed conditions.
This is the smallest asymmetrical
spinnaker allowed by the IMS rule. This is a high performance sail built out of high modulus materials.
- Webbed stainless steel rings in corners to allow for easy attachment
- Contender nylons and silicone coated nylon to prevent water absorption
- Double
sided tape is used on all seams and sewn with triple-stitch zig-zag
- Cross-radial or tri-radial panel layout
- Sail graphics (optional extra)

Our sails are computer designed, plotted and cut on an XY-axis plotter
