Doyle Grand Prix Racing

Doyle Sailmakers have very quickly grown to be a leading force world wide in Grand Prix race sails, both Working sails and Downwind specialist sails. Head designer Richard Bouzaid heads the design team with probably more experience than any other sail designer.

Doyle Sailmakers is the only sailmaker to offer 100% inhouse sail design, Stratis™ sail membrane manufacture facility and Production plant. This makes for a complete manufacture facility that can be completely controlled in-house for product, quality supply and delivery.

Over the years Doyle Sailmakers has amassed an impressive race winning record and have supplied sails to notable yachts such as J-class Valsheda, 100’ Elliott Maximus, Welbourne 95 Bols, 100’ Bakewell White Zana, Sydney Hobart winner 95’ Nicorette and many others.

Extensive testing on the water and in the Auckland University wind tunnel has allowed us to develop sail shapes and crossovers perfected for the individual custom Grand Prix yacht. This combined with our inhouse SailPack design program offers unrivaled performance.
