Soling Dark Lime Racing Sails
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. WJ Sails uses a lighter weight and a higher-quality Dacron than the stock Victor sails, and with the added reinforcements, battens, tell-tales, class symbol, numbers, and premium printed design, they deliver better shape control, smoother performance, and a striking on-the-water appearance.
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.
