Our cruising mainsails are manufactured with a crosscut design combined with a durable Challenge sail cloth as standard, which gives a long life for your cruising sail, even for the most avid sailor. For those who have the mainsail on a furling, any battens are strategically placed so as not to overlap each other when the cruising sail is furled, which minimizes the risk of the sail getting stuck in the mast. With a new cruising mainsail from K&A Sails you get to experience the wonderful feeling of a new cruising sail with a stiff sail cloth that is also well adapted for furling if your sailboat has this. In the after luff and under luff of the cruising sail there are trim lines and tell-tales in the after luff.

For those who want sails in the same design and size as today, the sails can be sent or left with us for measurement. You can also do this yourself using our measurement template if you wish. You will receive your old sails back as soon as the measurement is complete. For example, if you want a 150% genoa and have a 125% today, we can offer measurement directly on the boat in our vicinity. Otherwise, you can also use our measurement templates.
