BRIGHT WHITE POLYSAIL KITS (OUR BEST) contain everything you need
to make a taped or sewn sail that looks and performs like one of the expensive
synthetics. These kits include all the components listed in the chart below and provide ample materials for your sail
project. We no longer offer partial kits, but you can order additional items
for inclusion in your kit when shipped.

FINISHED WHITE POLYSAILS
Finished White PolySails come ready to attach to your mast. These sails are hand cut to size, darted (if necessary), and taped. Next, the corners are reinforced and the edges and corners are stitched with Dabond V-69 polyester sailmakers thread. Finally, the corners and edges are grommeted prior to shipment. All corner grommets are heavy-duty, 7/16 ID spurred grommets. Please indicate your choice for the reinforcement trim color in the notes section that will appear when you order through the PayPal Buy Now buttons.

BRIGHT
WHITE POLYSAIL KITS (OUR BEST)
Our
larger White PolySail Kits now come with scissors as well as a utility knife.
Several of our customers have mentioned that, with the cost of fuel, the price
of our kits is generally lower than they would spend driving to stores and/or
trying to order the same materials and components online. Many have also noted
the convenience of having all sailmaking materials available in one package.
Once constructed, however, it is the appearance and performance of their
PolySails that customers most value.

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 inches. Our tarps are 5.5-6.0 oz. (regular) to 8.0 oz. (heavy) per true sq. yd. (not the smaller sailmakers yard), and are made of a 12 x 12 to 14 x 14 per sq. in. inner layer of woven polyethylene strands covered by outer layers of sheet polyethylene. As a sail material, white polytarp resists punctures, tears, stretching, and blowouts.
