KAYOSPRUCE LTD<\/p>\n
The Challenge Newport range of All Purpose (AP) and Pro Radial sailcloth is now available from UK distributor Kayospruce in black.<\/p>\n
The move to a black cloth is in response to cruising sailors asking for more racing looking sail fabrics, explained Kayospruce\u2019s Chris Owen.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe coated yarns give added protection to the fabric, helping to reduce UV deterioration,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the next few months look out for black sails on the water in a break from traditional white sails with the added value of better protection from the elements.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cloth weights available in the new range from 6.45oz to 10.95oz.<\/p>\n
The Newport range is producing using Challenge Fibre104 using the company\u2019s optimum Interlock Technology designed to maximise sail shape and performance.<\/p>\n
In addition, both the Newport AP and Pro Radial use Challenge’s High Mass Fibre Technology for high UV resistance, durability and abrasion resistance.<\/p>\n
The Newport AP cloth is especially suitable for sails with high leech load paths and demanding shapes.<\/p>\n
Newport Pro Radial uses high performance warp fibres for balanced radial and directional stability.<\/p>\n
