FiberPath Cruise Enduro from Ullman Sails is the FiberPath product with the addition of Taffeta (light woven Dacron) on each side creating a U.V. and chafe barrier. This allows the avid sailor to get the performance of the racing sailor with more durability. The FiberPath Cruise Enduro is 40% more durable than the FiberPath GP and 10% more durable than the FiberPath Elite. The FiberPath Cruise Enduro is blue water capable and ideal for wind ranges from 5 to 35 knots with it’s high strength and low stretch. Like all of the FiberPath lines the loads of the sails are mapped out and built in to give you the best performance and reliability. The Taffeta films are 75 grams a square meter and completely block the U.V. light from the Technora yarns. Technora is the best fiber for this use in most occasions and meets the high standard set out by Ullman Sails.
Low stretch and better performance mean that the boat is sailing more efficiently. This relates to reefing less, less heel, easier boat handling, and safer sailing. Contact a Ullman Sails Team member for more information on FiberPath Cruise Enduro.
