Dehler 39 Mainsail


Dehler 39 Light No.1


Recent launchings



With new race boats regularly being launched we are now flat out at the loft ensuring all of our customers get their sails in time!

Alan Meredith has taken delivery of his new Dehler 39, Quickbrew. The Dehler 39 is a true dual-purpose yacht, but following the design's success on the continent we are sure this will be one to watch on the race course as Alan works her up during the summer. As the boat has a rig which is virtually identical to the First 40.7, we used our proven designs from this boat as a basis for the 39. Quickbrew's inventory consists of a Checkmate Kevlar Main, Light, Medium-Heavy and No.3 together with a pair of Series 2000 spinnakers.

During initial sail trials Alan commented that he was "very pleased with the boat and the sails look wonderful."

At the other end of the scale is the custom IRM 10.7m raceboat Roaring Meg 2 of Tim Dixon and Jon Manley. She was launched late last week just in time to head straight off to Ford Cork Week! Her programme takes in Cowes and the Commodores Cup after Cork and if the IRM 9m Quokka is anything to go by, Roaring Meg 2 will be a 35-footer that embarrasses many a much larger boat around the course!

Cruiser, Racer or One Off, you can rest assured that Banks Sails have the answer.
