Windward Boatworks builds the Barnett 1400 sailboat in Princeton, Wisconsin. This nearly 14-foot sailboat gives beginners an easy, confidence-building way to get on the water, thanks to its simple rigging and smooth handling. A roomy 13-inch-deep cockpit—rare for a boat this size—adds comfort and stability for relaxed sailing. The standard model uses a mainsail-only setup to keep things simple, while an optional jib kit gives sailors the flexibility to expand their sailing experience.

The right sail setup makes all the difference on the water.  At Mad Sails we design and build high-quality Barnett 1400 sails that are easy to rig, responsive in various conditions, and durable enough for seasons of use. Whether you sail with the standard mainsail-only configuration or add the optional jib kit, our sails deliver reliable performance and a smooth, enjoyable ride. If you’re looking for a replacement sail or want to upgrade your setup, we offer precision-built sails that match the boat’s stability and beginner-friendly design.
