Delta sails have been developed as a sail solution for cruising and racing yachts under 15 metres (50 ft). Utilizing the same adhesives and lamination process from our Stratis plant these sails offer similar benefits as our premier product.
A modern alternative to the traditional panelled sail construction, Delta provides you with high-quality fibre options and proven fibre layouts. Specifically designed for the local cruising and club racing yachts these sails are built for versatility, performance and longevity. Customised designs and engineering are based off tried and tested moulds to suit the size and purpose of sail. The choice of fibres used in Delta laminates include Black Technora and Carbon with the option for white taffeta or clear UV films. Technora fibres are extremely durable and resistant to flex fatigue, whereas Carbon fibre's have the ability to resist stretch and maintain great shape retention over the life of the sail Delta sails take Doyle’s winning combination of engineering and production expertise and leverage the efficiencies developed over many years of producing the world’s largest sails to deliver a durable, performance focused sail to racers and cruisers alike.

Smuggler Marine had an impressive line-up of 11 boats at the recent Auckland On Water Boat Show, including two new models, the Strata 780 SS and the Strata 580. The show was held outside in Auckland’s typically-crazy spring weather – four seasons in one day, but this didn’t stop the public coming to see what Smuggler had on offer for 2017.
Smuggler’s new 780 SS was a show stopper, with many customers wanting test rides and information on this revolutionary design; with twin consoles and a walk-through Bowrider giving access to the forward lounge area. This is a great option as a tender, an incredible hull with 27 degree deep V gives unrivalled performance, keeping guests dry and safe in all conditions. The new Smuggler Strata 580, an outboard RIB with large forward area, dive bottle stowage and practical seating options is a great riding RIB for all purposes, crew tender or day boat. There was a great number of people interested in this option. Another model on show was an old favourite the Strata 750 CC, with black carbon-style hypalon tubes, black hull and console and black powder coated S/S work. ‘Blackhawk’ received rave reviews, and Smuggler will no doubt be building several more of this model for the NZ summer season. All Smuggler tenders from 6m upwards can be powered by outboard, inboard, jet drive or stern drive. |
