High
Performance/Low Cost Sails for Small Sailboats
PRODUCTS
World’s largest supplier of polytarp
sails and kits.
Our motto: “Buy low; live slow; sail
fast!”
PolySail International has been offering PolySail Kits and custom sail construction since 1996. We
have made hundreds of sails of all different types. Our customer feedback and on-the-water testing in long distance cruises and races
indicate that PolySails are durable and competitive
with many other modern synthetic sails and materials offered at much higher
prices.
Note: PolySail International supports PDRacer, a developmental class of 4’ x 8’ homebuilt racing
scows with sail and kit discounts for those PDRacers
with a registered hull number. To access these discounts, CLICK HERE to go

Products Page All other customers use this page to access product and

We offer 3 different types of packages/kits to meet the needs of boat
builders and owners for low-cost sails:

FINISHED
POLYSAILS are individually
constructed, high performance sewn sails that we carry in inventory or
construct for you at prices that are
the lowest in the sail industry. We now offer 6 finished sails in the 55 to 75 square foot range with a range
of colored trim options. 4 of these sails fit multiple boats from well-known
designers and 2 of the sails are popular PolySail
designs. Some of these sails are also available in solid colors and can
include a choice of material weight. CLICK HERE to order using
our simple shopping cart option or to learn more about our finished sails. |

CUSTOM
POLYSAILS are sails that we
construct for you to a specified sail plan for your home-built or purchased
boat. Our industry-low rate for
3-sided sails is $2.75/sq. ft. For 4-sided sails, our rate is $2.95/sq. Note: We recently completed
a set of sails for the 22’ Sharpie Coot pictured in
the plan at the left. |

POLYSAIL KITS are now available in 4 standard sizes from 10’ x 12’
to 15’ x 20’ for those who want to make their own sails. In addition, we are
introducing a new NO-SEW POLYSAIL KIT that features the latest in acrylic
adhesive technology and many other extras for those who don’t
sew or simply want to get out on the water quickly. Our kits contain everything you need** to construct a
sail that will rival one of the expensive synthetics in looks and performance.

2013 PDRACER/ SMALL BOAT EVENT CALENDAR |
|
This 2013 CALENDAR includes an expanded event list that PDRacers and other small boat builders and sailors might
want to attend. This year’s theme is on sharing and helping others to get
their feet wet in sailing and boatbuilding. As always, proceeds after
expenses go toward promoting PDRacers and their
World Championship. Due to this year’s late printing, prices are reduced by 25% over last year. Order below for January
delivery. |
Our white polytarp material is
canopy grade and is suitable for many other uses, including boat covers, camping
and picnic ground covers, tent flies, wood and machinery covers, temporary roof
covers, landscaping projects, and play projects. All our tarps are made from U-V protected, washable, waterproof, shrink
proof, rot proof, rip-resistant white polyethylene. Seams are
electronically welded for strength, corners are reinforced and grommeted, and all edges are likewise reinforced and grommeted with rust resistant grommets approximately every
18-36 inches. Our tarps are 3.1 (lightweight) to 5.2-6.0 oz. (regular) to 8.0
oz. (heavy) per true sq. yd. (not the smaller sailmaker’s
yard), and are made of a 10 x 10 to 14 x
14 per sq. in. inner layer scrim of woven polyethylene strands covered by outer
layers of sheet polyethylene. As a sail material, white polytarp resists
punctures, tears, and blowouts. Its resiliency allows it to stretch in a breeze
yet return to its original shape when pressure lessens, making it an ideal
sheet sail material.
