How does Doyle stack up against the offshore sailmakers?

All sails are not equal. If you buy based a rock-bottom quote from an offshore sailmaker you'll probably get what you pay for. Here's why:

An efficient, long-lasting sail is the result of three integrated components: design, materials, and construction. Scrimp on any one of those components and you'll fly an inferior sail.

DESIGN. Your Doyle sail is designed by the same guys who work up sails for one-design champions, America's Cup boats, and multi-million dollar mega yachts. These are some of the finest sail designers in the business -- now working for you! Their proprietary CAD software means that your design will benefit from more than 20 years of Doyle experience designing sails for boats of all shapes, sizes, and sailing conditions.
MATERIALS. Often, inexpensive sails are made from inexpensive materials. Even if the fabric comes from the same mill, it doesn't necessarily mean it is the same grade! Doyle sails are made from the highest quality woven Dacron made. The fabric utilizes Dupont's high modulus type 52 Dacron fiber and is constructed with a tightness and weave balance that locks the fibers together so it is not dependent on resin for its long term shape holding.
CONSTRUCTION. Doyle lofts are painfully meticulous about the details.
  • Leeches are taped instead of using folded-over hems, and have two rows of stitching.
  • Stainless steel corner rings are webbed when appropriate.
  • Oversize corner reinforcements combine radial and conventional patches for maximum strength and effective load spreading.
  • A stainless steel ring at the head prevents sail cover chafe.
  • Batten reinforcements are used to stop leech flutter.
  • Luff slides are webbed on.
  • Every sail comes with leech lines, tell tales, sail bag and ties.
The difference between an adequate sail and a great sail is not easily apparent, especially when the sails are new. It may be tempting to skimp on these details now, but there is a difference... and five years from now you'll know it!
