This sail features a sail area that is similar to the Light jib but has a higher thread count for increased durability and a flatter, more draft forward, shape for better performance in stronger wind. Designed for a breeze range of 7-22 knots, this sail is ultra fast in both flat water and big wave venues.

When the breeze is really howling, and you need to reduce sail area to keep the boat on its feet, our heavy jib is the answer. This sail features a smaller sail area than the Light or Medium jibs, yet it still provides the performance and handling you need in One-Design racing.

» Contender Dynalite

The A3 is our largest spinnaker in terms of sail area and is the ideal selection for when sailing in the dead down wind mode. Built to the maximum mid-girth, this sail is perfect for the 7-13 wind range in either flat or choppy conditions.

» Contender Dynalite

With a flatter profile and smaller sail area than the A3, this sail performs very well in lighter conditions or when the 32 wants to get up and plane. Designed and geared for a more apparent wind forward position, the A2 is simply the best performing spinnaker on the market. Ideal for wind ranges 4-8 and 13-25.

* Melges 32 Class Rule allow for 2 spinnakers to be carried on the boat while racing. North Sails recommends the A3 and A2 as the primary spinnakers to be used for One Design Racing.
