Luff-sleeve

For cruising yachts we recommend a Genoa No. 2 with a high cut foot as an allround roller furling headsail. For really tough sailing on ocean passages and frequent use of a reefed headsail, we recommend the “Crescent Cut” sail design with a 2-ply leech and foot in curved crescent form.

AREA

The area of the headsail can be calculated using luff and LP measurements as follows :

Luff x LP x 0.5 = Area

LUFF

For a roller furling headsail the luff is measured from shackle to shackle as shown in Fig 2.

LP = Luff Perpendicular :

LP is the linear measurement from luff to clew measured at 90 degrees to the luff, and is used for jibs and genoas (see Fig.16). 
The LP measurement is used for the size classification of a headsail, e.g. as a 150% or 130% genoa, indicating by how much the headsail overlaps the mast as a percentage. (e.g. an 150% genoa has an LP = 1.5 x J and an 130% genoa has an LP = 1.3 x J).

LUFF FOAM

The padded luff is a strip sewn onto the sail close to the luff, which assists in maintaining a better sail-shape when sailing with the sail partially furled.

UV SUNCOVER

This is a protective strip of material sewn (not glued) onto the leech and the foot of roller furling headsails, to protect the sail from degradation caused by UV rays and other elements when the sail is furled.
It is available in 2 cloth types :
a) in 5oz UV treated sailcloth (in white only)
b) in 9oz original US Sunbrella - available in a wide range of colours.

All offshore sails come with tell tales, flo stripes and large sailbags.
