North Sails Group Profile
Company Description
We are a unique sailmaker, built on a champion spirit. Our past and presenttriumphs make us who we are and set us apart from other sailmakers.
North Sail was started by Lowell North in 1957 with a simple philosophy: get the best people and commit yourself to make the best product. Be clear, creative, methodical and competitive in spirit. Surpass your wildest imagination. Today, the business is the largest division of North Technology Group and is the world leader in sailmaking technology. North Sails holds the patents for 3Di, a unique composite construction process, resulting in high-performance sails that approach the shape holding of a rigid foil. North Sails is the sailmaker of choice on the majority of America’s Cup, Grand Prix, Ocean race boats and Superyachts. North Sails is also the world’s leading sailmaker for one-design classes with more National, World and Olympic Class victories than all other sailmakers combined.
