North Sails Ireland is giving Afloat readers an early heads-up on a September promotion offering 15% off sails for Ireland’s One Design racing community.
From Dragons and Fireballs to Flying Fifteens, GP14s, J24s, J80s, Puppeteers, Rankins and Wags, One Design racing remains a major part of Ireland’s sailing scene, where small differences in boatspeed can have a significant impact on results.
North Sails have powered competitors to World, European, National and Regional successes during the 2026 season. The sailmaker is now preparing to launch its September One Design promotion, with Afloat readers being given advance notice of the upcoming 15% discount.
Sailors planning ahead for the 2027 season are being encouraged to contact North Sails Ireland for a quotation ahead of the promotion.

Rankins using North Sails were among the boats racing at Cobh People’s Regatta last weekend, with the fleet pictured rounding the weather mark during the event.
The September offer targets One Design sailors looking to prepare their sail inventories ahead of next season, with further details on the promotion expected from North Sails Ireland.
Please contact your local experts here in Ireland for more details.
