A Storm Trysail is a small triangular sail with a 'droopy' clew that is hoisted by a halyard on the mast and is sheeted independent of the boom. It is preferable to use a separate track on the mast to avoid the potential danger of removing your mainsail in heavy weather conditions.
Storm Trysails are a necessity when sailing offshore in areas with a risk of strong winds and heavy weather. They are also demanded as being part of the sail wardrobe by most international organisations for offshore racing events including Australia. And did you know that Marine insurance premiums can be cheaper if leisure boats carry them on board.

If you cannot feed your trysail into the main mast track and you don’t have a seperate track to hoist the sail in, you may want to consider fitting a track off to one side of the mast. Please see our recommended option below. This option is avaliable as a check box during purchase. If you have any questions, please - Contact Us
