Abstract

A triangular sail is made by laminating three triangular layers of reinforced film together on a mold to provide a one piece molded sail. Each layer is made up of a plurality of triangular pieces which radiate out of one of the three corners of the sail, such that the pieces in each layer cross in the body of the sail.
