LC-1 Light Jib $9,532
3DL 800 Carbon 12600 DPI
Thin Films

100% Carbon sail, a development of our very successful LB mold. Construction and “bag” weight lighter than previous jib designs. 

North Sails works closely with and consults Farr 40 trimmers to improve sail performance. With their input, we have lengthened the LC-1's luff.

DESIGNED WIND RANGE:
0 - 8 knots true wind speed 		   © North Sails 
Li-1 Light Jib $10,235
3Di 870i 12600 DPI

Using what we have learned in the Melges 32 class for 3DL to 3Di mold design changes, we now offer the 3Di light jib.

DESIGNED WIND RANGE:
0 -8 knots true wind speed 		  
MC-1 Medium Jib $10,263
3DL 800 Carbon 16800 DPI 
Thin Films

The MC-1 has proven itself for a number of years. For 2011, we are increasing the luff length and reducing the amount the sail leans on the lower spreader. The clew car should remain in the same position as previously trimmed.

DESIGNED WIND RANGE:
8 -17 knots true wind speed		   © North Sails 
Mi-1 Medium Jib $10,976
3Di 870i 16800 DPI

DESIGNED WIND RANGE:
8 -17 knots true wind speed

Using what we have learned in the Melges 32 class for 3DL to 3Di mold design changes, we now offer the 3Di medium to directly replace the 3DL medium.
 		   
Heavy Jibs - Choice of:

HC-2 Heavy Jib $10,407
3DL 800 Carbon 19600 DPI 

The HC-2 jib has been modified after the 2009 Worlds in Porto Cervo, Italy to increase entry angle down low and twist up high.

17 - 23 knots true wind speed  		   © North Sails
     
 

Hi-1 Medium Jib $10,989

(Qualifies as an ORC #4. Must have on board for each sanctioned regatta)

The HWJi-2 was the first 3Di sail to be introduced into the Farr 40 class and offers the ultimate in performance and durability.

Must have onboard for each sanctioned Farr 40 regatta, but no longer requires a Farr 40 button.

SPECIFICATIONS:
Luff Grommets (Category 4 Safety Rule)
Tell Tale Window

DESIGNED WIND RANGE:

DOWNWIND SAILS

The class has decided to go with three Masthead Spinnakers. Two at 30 grams and one at 40 grams. This permits the boat to carry a "family" of MH spinnakers that have an effective range through all the racing conditions. One Fractional Spinnaker must also be carried onboard.

The 1.5S is more of a hybrid designed in between the 1S and the 2S. It is made with 30 gram (0.5 oz cloth), although some boats prefer this design as their 40 gram spinnaker. The 1S is strictly a light air VMG style sail and is also made with 30 gram fabric. Finally, all will utilize a large 2S, with a rule weight of 40 gram (sailmakers 0.7oz.) A fourth spinnaker will be carried onboard -- a fractional sail that fits the old measurement rule. We recommend the current 4S 40 gram sail that will only be used in very extreme conditions.

All North spinnakers are equipped with the following:

» High Modulus Luff and Leech Cord
