Built by North Sails in our Minden, Nevada factory and finalized in Vannes, France, the Volvo Ocean 65 sails will benefit from the experience and technology of the world’s leading sailmaker.
North Sails works with a very advanced 3Di technology – a 3D moulding technique giving the sails a flying shape.
In 2014-15, each one-design Volvo Ocean 65 will race around the world with just 12 sails, a major reduction in the inventory from previous races and another significant cost saving introduced as part of the project. Just eight race sails are allowed on board, with no (non-repair) re-cuts and only four replacement sails.
