LONGEST-LASTING
Mylar film is a versatile material with many uses; performance sails aren't one of them. North Sails' zero Mylar 3Di construction method creates exceptionally durable sails that resist stretching, UV degradation, and, most importantly delamination.
Because of zero Mylar construction, 3Di sails boast enduring shape retention and withstand harsh weather. This ensures consistent, top-tier performance throughout the sail's lifespan.

AERO-OPTIMIZED
A streamlined sail shape delivers less drag, more drive, and greater effectiveness across a wider wind range.
North Sails designers pair our bespoke computer software and analytics with full-sized 3D molds to precisely match ideal aerodynamic shapes to all types of boats. The smooth, one-piece sails are more durable and resistant to stretch. The effective lifespan of a 3Di sail is considerably longer than the competition.

LIGHTER + STRONGER
If another sailmaker tells you they can make a sail lighter and stronger than 3Di - that is impossible.
3Di sail structure starts with the world's lightest, strongest, most durable filaments, less than the width of a human hair. This allows North designers to engineer the sails 20% lighter for equal strength or 20% stronger for equal weight compared to any competing sail on the market. With zero Mylar construction, every ounce of a 3Di sail's structure goes towards performance.

We sail really hard, so it´s important to have strong sails; reliable but good performance. The sails are what makes the boat go fast.
