P&B Continuing success in 2015.
 
Since its inaugural season in 1992, P&B sails immediately tasted competitive success and this soon moved on to National, European and World level.
Built, designed and engineered here in the UK (in our Northampton loft) the following 25 years have seen a continuous cycle of success with major title wins every season and we feel the in-house experience we have making sails here in the UK is unparalleled. 2014 was a remarkably successful year and one we thought would not be bettered, with wins in over 20 major championships.

With that said the 2015 season started with a huge bang with 1st and 2nd overall at the 505 World championships in South Africa however during the year what has been obvious is the consistency of speed of the P&B sails in the most competitive of classes.
7 out of the top 10 overall at the Merlin Rocket Nationals (including 2nd 3rd and 4th),

World, European and National championship success in the Mirror class and finally a third World title win in a row in the Flying 15 class to name but a few.












Further notables this season saw continual development work during the season coming good at the major championships. In particular 2nd overall in the ever competitive Enterprise class and after a lot of development work with sailors in the class a first national title success for a while in the Phantoms backed up with 3rd and 4th overall. Finally a mention to Andy and Chris 2015 national champions at the most competitive Scorpion UK nationals for many years.


P&B are proud of their success in 2015 and in particular the consistent speed that the P&B sails produce.
A huge thank you goes to all the sailors that support us across the range of dinghies and a massive well done to all those that have tasted success in 2015. P&B. UK sail makers.
