North Full-Batten Mainsails provide smooth performance and easy handling. Full-length battens eliminate flogging and improve shape control – which enhances durability while helping the sail stack neatly on the boom. FullBatten mainsails are great for shorthanded sailing and for boats equipped with custom luff systems, single line reefing and lazy jacks or quick covers. North Sails designs and engineers FullBatten Mainsails so that all parts work together as a system, for an improved cruising experience.
