Comparatively to other mainsail protections, with our Sail Pack:
The cradle is a fully battened bag with lazy-jacks that opens automatically and holds the sail when it is doused or raised. Extra folds when the sail is reefed stay in the sail pack, removing the need to attach the excess canvas with sail ties.
The top part that holds the sail head folds inside the cradle and the sail pack remains closed at the front with the lower quick-release fasteners.
Difference with the Classic model:
The zipper is sewn on the side of the cradle, this is why we recommend this model to people who have trouble closing the zipper when the head of the sail is high.
The zipper is completely protected under canvas so that UV does not damage it.
The (webbing) sail ties are inside and enable the cradle to be folded down under the boom and tie it, to uncover the full surface of the sail. This feature is appreciated by racers.

1. Check dimensions when we receive your order:
- We design your sail pack with the measurements that you have entered,
- We check the consistency of the whole product,
- We will contact you if we need to check the information.
2. Depending on your sail's foot type
As requested, you need to choose from three sail configurations
a - the sail is loose footed
Most of sail packs are made with a bolt rope because the sail is loose footed.
The sail pack will have a 2/5 '' (10mm) diameter bolt-rope as standard. If you want a different diameter bolt-rope, please tell us in the comments section X & Y at the end of your order.
b - The sail isn't loose-footed; it's attached to the boom with a bolt rope sewn onto it
When the sail is not loose footed we have to manufacture an other method.
The sail pack is made with a PVC strip instead of a bolt rope because your sail is attached to the boom using a bolt rope sewn at the base of the sail.
To secure the sail pack to the boom, Guardtex has devised a clever system involving a PVC strip sewn along the base of both sides of the sail pack.
This allows you to simultaneously slide the sail's bolt rope, enclosed within the PVC strip, into the boom track.
c - The sail isn't loose-footed; it's attached to the boom with sliders sewn onto it
Another method is used to attach the sail pack to the boom when sliders are sewn onto the sail instead of a bolt rope.
Therefore, sliders have also been placed on the sail pack. You'll need to attach one slider for the sail, then one for the sail pack, alternating between them.
We need to know the center-to-center distance between two sliders from you as well as a profile photo of the slider
In both cases, we include openings for the reefing lines.
3. About lazy jacks:
As requested, you can choose 3 or 4 ties on each side. They are strap toes sewn on the side of the sail pack, in which you attach the lazyjack lines you already have, or ones you can buy from a chandlery.
4. Comment: Battens are not supplied.
- Either you already have them on your previous sail pack and can use them in the dedicated sleeves. Our sleeves can hold a diameter up to 14mm or flat battens with a width of 30mm.
- Or you can buy them. The cost of shipping is higher than the cost of the battens, so we have decided to not include them, it is better you get them from a local chandlery.
