Our cruising mainsails are manufactured with a crosscut design combined with a durable Challenge sailcloth as standard, ensuring a long life for your cruising sail, even for the most seasoned sailor. With a new cruising mainsail from K&A Sails you will experience the great feeling of a new cruising sail with a stiff sailcloth. The cruising sail's leech and foot have trim lines and tell-tales in the leech. Protect and simplify the handling of your sail with our Sail cover and lazybags/sailpack.

Measuring sails
For those who want sails in the same design and size as today, the sails are sent or left with us for measurement. You can also do this yourself using our measurement template if desired. Your old sails will be returned to you as soon as the measurement is completed. For example, if you want a 150% genoa and have a 125% today, we can offer measurement directly on the boat in our local area. Otherwise, you can also use our measurement templates.
