Racing sails for that extra 0.1 knot
WB Racing line is aimed for the club racer, but also for a cruiser who wants best performance and durability. It features laminate sails, often cut in the Contender MAXX-fabric, with its typical horizontal layout. We also use more traditional, warp oriented laminates.
WB HighTech Racing line is the pinnacle of our knowledge of aerodynamics, materials and technical construction. We build them of selected Kevlar and Mylar cloths using StressCut panel layout with titanium rings and hardware whenever permitted by the class rules.
The material choice
For bigger racing boats, we always use a laminate while small one design boats mostly use hard finished (Polykote or HTP-) Dacron cloths.
How does IMS work?

In the presentation you can get a glimpse of the effect on the hydrodynamics of the boat: the degree of turbulence in the sea, the quality of the boat's bottom, the gap between the bottom and the rudder
