Schwertzugvogel


Market grows for Banks in Germany



In 2000 we built up a strong relationship with our new agent in Travemünde in Germany, Heino Haase Segel.

In addition to yacht sails and our accessory range, Haase Segel have applied their highly professional approach to the One Design market in their country.

Germany has strong fleets of many international classes and has its own national classes, too. Names such as the Schwertzugvogel, Korsar and Pirat are becoming commonplace at Banks Sails.

We have already seen racing successes in Travemünde Woche, on Lake Garda and in the Berlin Region, which have proved that Banks can design and build competitive sails for this market.

With Banks Sails already well known in the big German FD fleet, we are looking forward to this becoming a growing market for us.
