HOW TO MEASURE

¡Lo siento! La información ahora sólo está disponible en Inglés

The measurement forms, available for printing¹ in this website, are designed to make the measuring of your yacht as simple as possible.

They show in clear diagrams the exact measurements which are required for ordering sails.

Please print the relevant PDF measurement sheets and take them with you to your yacht.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE “PDF” MEASUREMENT SHEETS ARE IN A FORMAT ESPECIALLY DESIGNED FOR DOWNLOADING AND PRINTING AND MAY TAKE SOME MINUTES TO DOWNLOAD, DEPENDING ON THE SPEED OF YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION.
(The other measurement sheets are the same but are in a format for displaying in internet and open more quickly than the PDF pages.)

 

MEASUREMENTS

If you have never measured a sail before, now could be a good time to do it ! Even if you might not need a new sail at present, it is a good idea to have this information as a back-up in your boat papers, it can be very useful for the future if you have the exact measurements of your sails in your record.

Firstly print out our measurements sheets from the PDF printing sheets. Take these measurement sheets (one for each sail) to the boat and make the measurements on board.

We have prepared detailed MEASUREMENT SHEETS which should make it easy for you to take the measurements, step-by-step, on your own yacht. We supply you with detailed diagrams in the Measurement Sheets which make it quite clear which measurements are required and it is a logical process - even if it looks a bit complicated at first !

We do not recommend that you use the measurements from your old (tired !) sails. However, it is always good if you check the new measurements taken to compare them with the old sail stretched out under tension.

For the longer measurements (e.g. I and P and luff) we recommend that you buy, or borrow, a long metal measuring tape so as to be able to take these measurements exactly. Please do NOT use a rope and then measure it.
