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 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

Hank-on / 5.0 Dacron

A definite upgrade from your old factory sails, but still very reasonably priced. Made with high quality 5 OZ High Modulus Dacron in a cross cut design. 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.

While slightly heavier and stiffer to handle than the factory sails, this sail 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 as often. This is a 100% Jib, the sail does not reach past the mast. The larger sail that reaches past the mast is called a Genoa. Now equipped with upgraded Stainless Steel Snap Hanks to attach to your headstay, super durable and easy to use with one hand. Please call if you have questions.

Roller Furling, 5.5 Dacron / NO UV Cover

Roller Furling ready with #6 luff tape, for CDI furling units and other units with that size. The 100% Jib rolls out to reach the mast but does not go past. Can be rolled and used smaller. The Jib allows you to sail closer to the wind, point higher, and tack faster than the genoa sail (larger reaching past the mast). The heavier weight will give you good performance and hold its shape longer than the standard factory sail which is much lighter weight. Easy to use. This sail has no UV cover and we recommend purchasing the hoist up style jib cover for it. Without UV protection you will need to remove the sail when you are finished sailing and store out of the sun. Or easily pull up the hoist on sock / jib cover. (picture shows a jib, but on a different boat)

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.

Roller Furling, 5.0 Dacron / White Dacron UV cover

Roller Furling ready with #6 luff tape, fits CDI furling units and other units of that size. The 100% Jib will roll out to reach the mast, but does not reach past. For the larger sail you will need the 150% Genoa. The jib will give you quicker and easier tacks, and allow you to sail into the wind, point, higher than the genoa. This sail has a white UV cover, but we recommend for long term storage to use the hoist up sock / genoa cover to protect it from sun exposure and to protect it while trailering.

This is a BWY Exclusive sail, and is typically in our inventory and available to ship.
This sail is designed exclusively for 26C models that have been modified with our Big Jib re-rig kit (part# 3119-1C0). Designed to give the power of a Genoa but with the pointing ability and ease of sailing of an inside sheeting sail. Sail area is 136 sq/ft.

Historically there have essentially been three choices in sail cloth (other than exotic racing fabrics). Dacron, which is affordable, is plain white, has a reasonable life span, and is easy to handle in lighter weights, but has higher stretch and less performance than more modern fabrics. Racing Laminates, which are very light weight, moderately expensive, flashy looking, offer high performance, and are very fragile. Cruising Laminates, which combine the basic construction of a racing laminate with an outer layer of woven Dacron to improve durability. These fabrics are fairly expensive, offer good performance, tend to be somewhat stiff to handle and look essentially like a Dacron sail.

Enter Lite Skin, an all new 6 layer laminate from Dimension Polyant. Lite Skin offers a strength to weight ratio high enough to be a legitimate race fabric, but with such excellent durability and ease of care that it makes a great high end cruising fabric as well. As an added bonus Lite Skin is reasonably priced and has a really cool look. All BWY Lite Skin sails have the premium finish and features you would expect in a high end sail.
