Many of the One Designs go for Hyde, they are well made and use good materials and I suspect they are good at develoment. I have to say they have been brilliant when I've had repairs.

more and more 1 design classes are having thier sails made by north now but in other classes their are too many questions to be asked before a certain sail cut/maker can be named the best and its more a question of whats more suited to your ability, sailing style (are you a bit mad or conservative), your crew weight, your normal sailing conditions and many others |

Sorry Guys, Did not make my question very clear. I was wondering what anyone thought of Kevlar sails? I understand they are probably the most expensive but does this make them the best? MINESAPINT.
