NPL TOUR series sails are produced using the world’s most advanced sailcloth laminator. North Sails Xi Cruise laminates feature black aramid warp yarns and our exclusive eXact™ x-scrim reinforcement, sandwiched between thin layers of polyester taffeta. The result is an easy-to-handle radial cruising sail delivering low stretch and a smooth, long lasting shape. NPL Tour sails set the paneled standard for performance-minded coastal cruisers.
NPL Tour is an ideal choice when:
You have a large boat with high loads
You desire the low weight and low stretch provided by high modulus aramid fiber
You require sails with less bulk than woven cloth to fit in a furling mast or boom
