Flying Scot Racing Jibs

MAD Sails: High-Performance Flying Scot Racing Jibs

The Flying Scot racing jib is designed to drive your boat forward and boost the efficiency of your mainsail. A jib that is too full will kill your pointing; a jib that is too flat won’t power you through chop. At Mad Sails, we’ve optimized the Flying Scot jib entry to ensure you have a wide groove, making it easier to stay at peak speed even in shifting lake winds or turbulent water.

• Engineered for the “Slot” – Our jibs are designed to work in perfect harmony with our mainsails. We focus on a clean leech exit, which prevents the jib from choking the main, allowing for maximum airflow and superior upwind VMG.
• Precision Tapered Entry – Cut from premium Dimension Polyant cloth to handle forestay tension without distorting the shape.
• Reinforced Head, Clew and Tack – Fortified to withstand the constant sheeting loads of a tactical beat.

Visibility Features

Racing in a tight Flying Scot fleet requires total situational awareness. We offer two jib window options:

• Standard Vision Window: Positioned for a clear view of leeward boats and marks.

• Extra Large Radial Window: Vastly increases visibility of the start line and competitor boats on the race course.

What’s Included with Every Race Jib:

• FS Class Royalty Tag ($30): Fully compliant and ready for measurement.
• Tell-Tales: High-visibility for instant feedback.
• Heavy-Duty Sail Bag: Sail tie and a breathable bag designed for rolling to protect the cloth’s finish.
