Code D sail

James Cromie
To any Amel SM owner with a code D sail:
I am planning to get a code D sail to complement my downwind sailing kit. I am wondering what sail size, dimensions, and material (and cloth weight) other use for this sail or similar. Q sails in Turkey is offering a 130 sqm Code D made with PN 150 which has a weight of 1.75 sm-oz. Many thanks! James Soteria. 347

I use a code D. Code D is a registered name by Delta voiles.... So what the turkish sail maker is manufacturing is... something else maybe?

Thank you Gerald. Yes, I am aware of the Delta Voiles sail. For lack of a better name, some seem to refer to it as a Code D, since it is somewhere between a Code zero and an asymmetric spinnaker. Sort of like Kleenex perhaps. Is there is another term I should use to refer to this type of sail? Do you happen to know the dimensions of your sail and cloth weight? Kindly, James

I’ m not on the boat until december and do not have the exact data of the sail. Mine was made by the shop in Port Camargue S France in 2015. Mr Ferrari might have those data... It ‘s ca 130 sqm. Do you plan to have a bow sprit installed and where will the hallyard be (above or below the genoa hallyard)? I had quite a strugle to make everything wirk without chaffing issues Brgrds Gerald

Code D is a type of cut of a sail. The words "Code D" could be registered in France by anyone. Frenc registration has no impact on anyone outside of the EU.
