MC SCOW SAILS, TUNING & EXPERTS

MC Scow Sails - North Sails is the leader in one design sailmaking. On this page, you will find information about our complete line of MC Scow sail models, MC Scow tuning advice, and MC Scow news and results from the race course.



 

NEW! Z-One Radial Mainsail

2012 Midwinters Champion!

New for 2013!
The Z-One is the sail MC sailors were waiting for! A radial design made out of hard cloth in the body of the sail which allows it to better hold its shape. The Z-One was used to win the Midwinters and through continuous testings during the summer we are proud to announce our next FAST MC sail. Order today!

2013 Upgrade! All North MC sails will feature hard cloth in the body of the sail!

Mainsail standard features:

  • Custom RBS tapered battens
  • Enhanced vision window
  • Ultra-lite telltales
  • Waterproof personalized sail bag
  • Class insignia
  • Class Royalties
  • Choice of red, blue, black or green numbers





Z-Max Mainsail

2012, 2011 & 2010 National Champion!

 
The most powerful MC sail available on the market! The Z MAX continues to maintain its status as the most popular and versatile sail on the MC circuit.

Not only is it the most widely used, it is also the most successful sail, winning every major regatta in the MC Circuit. There is no better MC sail, period.
The unique design incorporated with the soft cloth in the body of the Z MAX allows for the ability to shift gears for different conditions and offers several shapes depending on what you are looking for.

2013 Upgrade! All North MC sails will feature hard cloth in the body of the sail!


Mainsail standard features:

  • Custom RBS tapered battens
  • Enhanced vision window
  • Ultra-lite telltales
  • Waterproof personalized sail bag
  • Class insignia
  • Class Royalties
  • Choice of red, blue, black or green numbers

"I never thought one sail could work for all conditions but the new Z-Max has done the job for me. There's nothing worse than being stuck on the race course when the conditions change and wishing I had brought the "other" sail. When I leave the dock in light or heavy air, I have confidence in my Z-MAX."Tommy Harken

"I like my North Z MAX sail for many reasons. For me, it means that I only need one sail. You can make it as flat or as full as you want. It is the right sail for all conditions. While some sails might be fast in one particular wind speed or sailing angle, the North Z MAX is always fast. It is easy to set up your boat on stock measurements and use this sail. No adjustments to the rig are necessary when conditions change."Jeff Annis

"The Z MAX allows the MC Scow to be a one sail program. The innovative design allows for the full range of shape adjustment needed from light to blowing the top off the lake. It will stretch flat in the heavy air and it can hold at the original full Master's cut. The Z MAX is fast and gives me the confidence to know I won't get caught with he wrong sail."Eric Protzman








ZAP Mainsail

 
The designed shape of the ZAP is that of our famous and very successful AP mainsail. However, our flying shape is different due to the “softer cloth” body which is what makes the ZAP so special. The end result is a sail that is incredibly quick in light air or breezy, flat water conditions. The ZAP is a great addition to an inventory as an AP sail for lighter MC racers.

Like the Z MAX we have incorporated a softer sail fabric in the main body of the sail but still have the high quality Contender hard Dacron in the foot and head of the sail. This gives us a sail that has the ability to shift gears for different conditions and offers several shapes depending on what you are looking for.

2013 Upgrade! All North MC sails will feature hard cloth in the body of the sail!


Mainsail standard features:

  • Custom RBS tapered battens
  • Enhanced vision window
  • Ultra-lite telltales
  • Waterproof personalized sail bag
  • Class insignia
  • Class Royalties
  • Choice of red, blue, black or green numbers
