Severne S-1 - 4.0

Severne S-1

The S-1 is a high performance 4 batten wave sail. A reduced batten count makes this sail light,

flexible and responsive. Less structural rigidity gives the rig a bigger sweet-spot, and allows the sail to auto-correct during wave-riding by giving the draft just enough movement to ensure constant power delivery.

Developed on an identical platform as the S-1 Pro, this year's S-1 replicates the dynamic performance in a more accessible construction. With it's 3 or 4 batten interchangeability the S-1 is an extremely versatile wave sail. The convertible batten system means the S-1 can be run as either a 3 or a 4 batten sail depending on conditions and preference. The S-1's very broad range of appeal is matched only by its wind range. Shaping is located extremely low and forward in the sail, and with a 4th batten added becomes extremely stable. The dropped clew allows short boom lengths for manoeuvrability and boom rigidity.

Built in quality eM3 materials, SpiderFibre, and with a diamond shaped Dacron luff panel for smooth power delivery, this sail is engineered for performance. Now with eM4 in the lower panels to make the 020 S-1 stronger and lighter.

SPIDERFIBRE
A web of fibreglass filament that disburses loads across seams and throughout the body of the sail. By using stronger, lighter fibres and reducing sail patching, we can measurably reduce weight and swing weigh and at the same time, increase strength.
