International 420

The High Performance International 420 is one of the hot Junior Class boats in North America. It is especially popular on the East Coast and was a fore runner to the Club 420, probably the most popular junior boat in all of North America. With North Sails worldwide contacts and design imput, we continue to help refine the International 420 sails for top performance.

KS-08 RADIAL MAINSAIL The KS-08 mainsail is constructed with a radial panel layout, allowing for better orientation of the fabric.  This, in turn, offers maximum shape retention in high-load areas of the sail. With more panels than a conventional crosscut sail we can apply shaping exactly where it is needed to make for an extremely smooth and accurate sail shape. The KS-08 is compatible with both current Proctor and Super Spar rigs and comes complete with insignia, numbers, battens, tell tales, sail bag and class button.

SP-08 RADIAL JIB The standard SP-08 jib is designed to complement the KS-08 mainsail perfectly.  Once again the radial panel layout offers maximum shape retention in high-load areas of the sail with better cloth orientation. Careful positioning of shape ensures that this sail will perform very well across the wind range and is easy to trim.  Comes complete with window, tack cleat, tell tales, sail bag and class button.

MS-4 SPINNAKER

	The MS-4 is our standard design for light and average teams.  It keeps a large projected area for fantastic running performance. We have flattened the lower part of the sail to increase performance for reaching and in particular tight reaching legs. Comes complete with sail bag and class button.
NEW IW-08 SPINNAKER
	New for the 2008 season, the IW-08 spinnaker is designed primarily as a running kite for the heavier crews in the fleet. The sail is designed fuller than the MS-4 with large shoulders for maximum projected area downwind. Comes with sail numbers, sail bag and class button.
