Hyde Sails at the Dinghy Sailing Show

by Louise Crowden, Pro-Action 28 Feb 2008 10:21 GMT Stand B8, 1-2 March 2008

Hyde Sails are exhibiting at the Dinghy Sailing Show for the first time in 10 years.

Over the last 12 months, Hyde Sails have been concentrating design development on a comprehensive list of one design dinghy classes from International Moths and 14s to Merlin Rockets and Optimists. The design team have worked with the assistance and input from top sailors from each dinghy fleet as well as boat builders. Because of this development Hyde Sails equipped boats have won at virtually every Olympic games since 1968.

Hyde are always looking to push sail development and design further and there will be more developments to come.

The new designs have moved to production stage and are available now from Hyde. A cross section of materials have been used each depending on individual dinghy class rules. The benefit however of working with each class is that sailors know what they are getting in terms of accurately built sails of consistent quality and design

With the sailing season not yet fully underway, Hyde look forward to hearing race results from the various classes. In preparation for the season up to date tuning guides for all classes with which Hyde’s are associated will be available. Hyde Sails have also added a number of accessories to their product range including kit bags, foil and quiver bags.

Please contact Toby Barsley-Dale at Hyde Sails to discuss your class requirements or visit them at stand B8.
