About FX Sails

sailboat sunset photo FX Sails is the online sailmaker with the service of a local loft. We want to design and build the sail you need, and create such a great experience that you sing our praises to friends and family. We can only do that if we build quality sails, provide expert advice, offer reasonable prices and deliver on the promises we make.

FX Sails offers two grades of custom mainsails and headsails, using cloth from Contender and Challenge, and we'll help you decide which is right for you. Our Inshore Sails, perfect for daysailing and short jaunts along the coast, carry a 3-year warranty. Our Offshore Sails are as tough as they come and feature a 5-year warranty.

FX Sails designs and builds custom asymmetrical and tri-radials spinnakers in addition to our pre-sized line of cruising spinnakers for the cost-conscious sailor. You'll also discover a complement of premium, pre-sized storm sails, sunfish sails and optimist sails.

The FX Sails team has the experience and background to ensure you're getting professional advice and design with every sail. Our Sail Consultant has squeezed more water out of his socks than most sailors have ever sailed across — 37 years of cruising and racing. Sandy Goodall, FX Design consultant, has 30 years sailmaking experience and is the former technical director and head of design for Elvström Sails Denmark.

While our experience sets the stage for your next sail purchase, it's customer service that takes FX Sails to the next level. We have only one goal — to make you a satisfied FX customer.

We got the Asym loaded in the sock this weekend and then flew it for the first time. It was easy to fly and performed very well although I have a long way to go learning how to properly trim it. My wife (who designed the colors and layout) loves the look of the sail and said that this is the sail she has wanted since we purchased the boat in 2014.

Thanks!

Just want to thank your staff for the guidance they gave for the new Main and Genoa for my Catalina 30. The Genoa and Mainsail have greatly improved the boats performance and the quality of the sails is really top notch. The sails fit perfectly and we’ll be ordering the Spinnaker shortly.

Thanks again!
Happy Sailing!

I wanted to provide you with an update on my new sail. I received it undamaged and well packaged. with my new sail I completed my first ocean crossing, three days at sea from Panama City to Ft. Myers. The sail sets beautifully and drives my old tank with authority. I am extremely pleased with my new Main. I will recommend your loft to all of my cruising friends.
Thank You for an outstanding mainsail and I look forward to many miles under my keel.
Thank you and everyone at FX Sails

Thanks,
Captain Troy Young
