[quote=nacrasailing]Hey everyone,
I've been in touch with Steve and apologized for being hard to get ahold of for a bit. Entirely my fault and his issues are sorted. We rarely have issues with shipping but our normal parts team was out of the office and the guy that shipped it left out some information.
Steve's Sails are Contender C242 Polyester Laminate. Same cloth we use on the Nacra 15, Nacra 460, 500, and 570.
I suggested this cloth to Steve as it's less expensive and handles abuse better. It does stretch a little more but it's very minor and you really won't notice unless your seriously racing. I personally find Pentex horrible as any little crease shows and affects sail shape. This polyester is a bit more durable in that regard.
Performance Sails has this cloth custom made in Red, Blue, Green, and White.
Performance Sails are made in house at Nacra in Holland. We can ship to the U.S. for the same price as shipping within the U.S.
Seems that I'm always correcting Sam, but Nacra / Performance Sails have won the last 3 worlds. But so little of that comes down to the sails versus the sailor. Our sails have definitely been noticed by sailors over the last couple years for quality and performance. It takes sailing at the top levels to recognize development and implement it into your own sails. Luckily we have very talented sailors as owners of Nacra and Performance sails who help develop the sails from the knowledge they've gained from the F18, N17, 20FCS, and etc.
If anyone has more questions about the sails please do not hesitate to contact me: Todd@NacraSailing.com
