WHISKER POLE, HEADSAIL CANVAS, GENOA/JIB COVER, 26X/26M CANVAS, GENOA/JIB COVER, FLUTTER CONTROL
WHISKER POLE, HEADSAIL
Our Price: $189.00

We recommend this telescoping pole (6'-12') for all Macgregor models. While Forespar says to use a larger size, we have found that the larger pole is too heavy to use in light wind without the complexity of a pole lift line. An added benefit is that if you completely lose control of things in a big blow, the plastic end fitting will break, acting as a sort of "fuse". These fittings are inexpensive and easy to replace. We stock these poles with latch fittings on both ends as we have found the "spike" style poles tend to come out of the sail grommet if the sail shakes a lot or goes slack. Instead latch securely onto the leeward sheet.

Everything is included in this kit for all boats except for 26M. If you have a 26M you must add the additional mast padeye bracket.

Because of the length this item ships oversize, and is subject to an additional $25 shipping charge. If we are able to get a cheaper shipping rate we will manually adjust your invoice accordingly.

Sunbrella cloth hoist up tube cover to protect your sail when not in use or while trailering. Built with 3 zippers so you can wrap it around your sail and hoist it up with your jib halyard. Sheets can come through at the third zipper location, so no need to remove the sheets. When trailering it is recommended to put sheets inside the cover for protection. Some boats may need to add a halyard and block. Black is a standard color and is usually in stock but other colors can be made for you. Please allow 2 to 6 weeks lead time on other colors Special order colors are non-refundable. Recommend Ocean Blue to match the blue hull of the 26M. This picture is of both the 26M and 26X at one of our rendezvous! This will fit the Tattoo 26 as well. Comes with Tabs for flutter control, line is $25 extra

PLEASE CALL IF YOU'D LIKE A COLOR THAT IS NOT LISTED. COLORS CAN BE FOUND ON THE SUNBRELLA CANVAS WEBSITE.

Sunbrella Canvas Colors

Sunbrella Jib or Genoa Covers that have small tabs sewn on to lace a string through. You will pull the string tight to prevent the cover from flapping in the wind. These small strings overlap like a shoe lace on the opposite side of the zippers, but they can tangle if you are not careful handling it! This is especially good on moored boats. Built with 3 zippers, just wrap the cover around your sail and hoist it with your jib halyard. Black, but other colors can be special order. All special orders non-refundable. Canvas orders may take 2-6 weeks to have them made. includes line

Roller Furling / 5.0 High Modulus Dacron / NO UV cover

The next step up from standard sails, made for more rugged use and longer life. This is a 150% Genoa, meaning that it overlaps the mast and has a longer foot than the jib. With reinforced corner rings, heavier corner and reef patches, and double stitching. This sail does not include a built in UV cover, we recommend you use our pull up sock type cover which provides both UV protection while moored and protection from dirt and abrasion while trailering. If you moor your boat full time and want the convenience of a built in UV cover we offer a version of this same sail with a built in UV cover. However a hoist up cover is still recommended for long tern mooring or trailering.

These sails feature a hydraulically pressed stainless steel ring for the clew, and reinforced nylon webbing for the head and tack to allow a strong but flexible connection to your furler.

This is a BWY Exclusive sail, and is typically in our inventory and available to ship.

Hank-on / 5.0 High Modulus Dacron

We now have the first batch of these BWY exclusive sails in stock from our new supplier, they are even nicer than before and have more features. BETTER YET WE ARE HOLDING THE OLD PRICE AS AN INTRODUCTORY SPECIAL!!

A step up from our standard sails, made for more rugged use and longer life. This is a 150% Genoa, meaning that it overlapps the mast and has a longer foot than the jib. With reinforced corner rings, heavier corner and reef patches, and double stitching. Made with high quality 5 OZ High Modulus Dacron in a cross cut design. This sails feature all stainless steel corner rings hydraulically pressed into the sail as well as larger corner reinforcements. High quality bronze plunger style hanks are used to connect to the forestay. While slightly heavier and stiffer to handle than the factory sails, these sails will last much longer, perform better through a larger wind range (your boat will go faster and heel less), and hold their shape better in high winds than the factory sails so you won't have to reef or change down to a small headsail as often.

Roller Furling / 5.0 Dacron / White Sunbrella UV cover

We now have the first batch of these BWY exclusive sails in stock from our new supplier, they are even nicer than before and have more features. BETTER YET WE ARE HOLDING THE OLD PRICE AS AN INTRODUCTORY SPECIAL!!

This is a 150% Genoa, the only size sail bigger than a standard jib that works properly on the MacGregor 26. We do not sell or recommend in-between sails such as a 125% or 130% Genoa. This sail is a substantial upgrade from the standard factory sail, it is made for more rugged use and longer life, with reinforced corner rings, heavier corner and reef patches, and double stitching.

This sail includes a built in white UV cover for added convenience on boats that are permanently or frequently moored in the water. We now use the new lightweight White Sunbrella Cloth fabric for the cover, this material provides the best UV protection available but adds about half as much weigh to the sail as traditional covers. This new lightweight acrylic cover also has much less effect on sail shape over time. If you mostly trailer your boat we recommend you purchase the version of this sail that comes without a UV cover and use our pull up sock type cover which provides both UV protection while moored and protection from dirt and abrasion while trailering, this gives you the best protection and the best sailing performance. For maximum sail life a sock type cover is recommended over any sail even if it has a built in UV cover in areas with lots of sun or if the boat is moored for long periods between use.
