Making sure that you have the correct ILCA sail numbers for your rig is as important as making sure that you place them in the correct place. Incorrect look, shape, size or placement of your sail numbers can lead to disqualification at large-scale events as the race committee may be unable to read your number on a busy start/finish line.
Here are some tips for applying your ILCA sail numbers and what types and sizes you should be using on your ILCA rig.
With ILCA sail numbers there are two sizes available which are 300mm or 230mm tall.
Country Code Letters are required if you are sailing your ILCA at World, International or Regional Championships or events where the Notice of Race or Sailing Instructions states they are required.
There are two sizes available 300mm and 230mm tall.
NOTE: World Sailing Rules of Sailing Appendix G1.2 specifies that national letters shall be clearly legible and of the same colour.
If you are a woman and plan on sailing at World, International or Regional ILCA Championships you'll need a red rhombus applied to your sail too. This can also be the case for other events where the Notice of Race or Sailing Instructions states the sails used shall carry a red rhombus. The rhombus on the ILCA sail is applied above the top batten pocket on both sides.
Good back, like the two separate pockets for wet and dry gear, however i find the wet pocket zip does seem to get stuck and would like the back to have straps like a rucksack so you can carry it on your back, other than that extremely happy with the 90l as it gives me tonnes of space for all my sailing gear
Delivered on time after chatting by phone to a very helpful person at Sailing chandlery. Absolutely no complaint with this Company and will continue to use them for my sailing needs.
I needed replacement Q Locks (a great product). Arrived in under 48 hours from ordering
A chandlery was the only place I could think where to get this. It's actually the strengthen the post for our washing line the steel wire (hoops both ends fitting diagonally from top of clothes post to base of another post 2 meters away supporting trellis between. The length of steel wire will soon disappear in the foliage & should provide addition structural support for many years.
Service was excellent with the length being ready before the expected date.
Worn these for a few races now and they have been excellent. Really high performing. They are grippy and super supportive even without using the zhik toe straps. I’ve raved about them so much that my crew and colleagues at the club have now also bought the same ones
Ordered this when my son's training sail got rippd in action. Pleased to find it here 20% cheaper than anywhere else and as always delivered correctly and in great time. Thankyou
The bag is well made and large enough for halyards as well as other items. I have used the 3M fixings but these are not really adequate and so the bags will need to be screwed in place.
I would buy again.
Delivery was on time. The O rings fitted the hatches on my topper topaz. No issues excellent service
I ordered the hiking pads for my son who was very pleased with them. The order was delivered within a few days. I’ve ordered items before from sailing chandlery and have not been disappointed with the service I received. Thank you
Loads of space in this bag for all of my kit, extra pockets are very helpful and the compartment inside keeps my dry and wet kit apart. Would recommend.
Not actually for a Topper but for a sailing canoe I have built. Pleased with the quality, delivered promptly, just the job thank you!
I’m using this with the Clamcleat CL211 and they pair perfectly. Strong and with the stiffness that I was looking for. Really pleased with the purchase and excellent quick service.
These work fantastically. Used with 6mm rope they grip instantly. Easy to adjust in small amounts and lock in with no effort at all. I was concerned that when the pressure comes off that the rope would release, but this isn’t the case at all. Really pleased with the purchase and rapid delivery.
Just what we needed, bought a second hand Topper, needed new ropes, sorted..Fitting instructions could be clearer for novices.
Very speedy delivery, and the special short length is just what I ordered. Ordering couldn’t have been simpler. Excellent service.
