Product Description
Same as item 5007 except not as a substitution.This item is for direct purchase of a modern Batwing sail from Balogh Sail Designs plus a Free mast step that will adapt it to any of our rigs (not Snarks). Includes mast, boom, mast step, sail and rigging. To buy these items as substitution for the corresponding standard items in a sail kit or sailboat you are ordering, order item 5007 instead. The Batwing sail can be reefed by means of zippers to reduce sail area in high wind. The high-tech modern design of the sail makes it more efficient for sailing upwind. Across the wind (reaching), in a strong wind, it is about equal to our 55 SF lateen sail, despite smaller sail area. In light winds, it is inferior on all points of sail. It shines in winds above 10 mph, particularly in upwind performance. Size is 36 SF. Two reefing zippers. More info CLICK HERE Not included: leeboards, frame, steering. This is not a complete sail kit.
