Black DF95 Racing Sails
for the Dragon Flite 95
These DF95 sails are made from premium Racing Dacron instead of the typical Mylar used on most DF95 sails. Because high-quality printing does not adhere well to Mylar, we use this lightweight, highly flexible Dacron that offers excellent bias strength and outstanding recovery. Combined with our improved ink technology, the result is much brighter colors and sharper printed designs.
Many sailors have requested colorful printed sails because stock sails all look the same, making it difficult to spot your boat in a crowded fleet. A great deal of design work has gone into these sails, and they will only be available until we run out of cloth or find a suitable replacement.
Actual big-boat CAD fiber layout printed on the starboard side, giving the realistic appearance of modern membrane sail technology. This premium print uses a specialized $80,000 printer and unique ink. Thanks to our partnership with the printer owner, we offer this high-end look at a reduced cost.
Note: Sails are printed on the starboard side only. The design shows through clearly from the back.

Are These Sails Better Than Stock?
Yes. These sails are a clear upgrade over the stock Mylar sails. Mylar can easily develop folds, creases, or small cuts - and once that damage happens, it never really goes away, leaving the sail permanently uneven and no longer smooth.
WJ Sails uses a lighter‑weight, higher‑quality Dacron that stays smoother, handles wear far better, and maintains its shape over time. Combined with our reinforcements, battens, tell‑tales, class symbol, numbers, and premium printed design, you get a sail that performs cleaner and looks sharper on the water.
Important: Once sail numbers are applied to printed sails, they are not returnable. If unsure of your numbers, choose the "numbers sent loose" option.
Printed Sail Care Disclaimer
Your Windjammin printed sails will look great and hold up extremely well as long as they are used in normal, moderate wind conditions and not allowed to flap violently in heavy air or while rigging on shore.
Printed sails are made from lightweight RC sailcloth. This cloth is perfect for performance, but it is not designed for repeated abuse in strong or gusty winds. If sails flap hard in heavy air, the cloth can stretch while the ink cannot, which may create visible lines or small chips in the print.
In winds under about 14 mph, most sailors get years of excellent appearance with only minor touch-ups. The sail itself remains fully functional even if cosmetic wear appears.
If you sail in heavy winds often, we recommend keeping a plain white backup set for windy days and saving your printed racing sails for the conditions where they will last the longest and look their best.
These are my own personal Soling sails used for 3 seasons so far. Used 98 percent of the time in 0 to 14 mph. Only minor wear on the jib luff. A Sharpie fixes it easily.
Heavy wind damage example. Two customers reported wear after 10 hours of sailing in repeated 14 to 17 mph gusts. These were windy spring conditions.

Pro Tip from Windjammin
Use your colorful printed sails on calm to moderate days and keep a set of plain white sails as your heavy-air backup. Most customers get several great years out of their printed sails this way. Your sailing style, tuning habits, and local wind conditions are the biggest factors in how long they last.
