Crazy welded carbon and dyneema as hi-tech as it gets. Of course its all about weight with the 5.6m just 2.7kg. I didn't even see a price. I guess if you have to ask you can't afford it. Wink

My 5.9m is 2.95 kg vs the 2.7kg = A whopping .55 of a pound.
It’s not all about the weight.
It’s about ::

If the construction holds up over time; are welded seams likely the future of sail construction?

hope future sails have a lot more color than was shown in Severne's video about construction & features.

Seams are not a wear problem.
Material is.

Stitching on the Maui Sails and the S2Maui sails is there weak
point they tend to unravel and shed.
Do these Severnes avoid stitching?
The Maui Ghost's where a light sail with a lot of Technora.

the downside of this welding the seams technique is who
is going to be able to fix a a broken sail other than the factory?
