5 Great features of the Gorilla Laser/ILCA Foil Bag.
Here is why we think you should be using the Gorilla Foil bag to look after your Laser/ILCA foils keeping them in great condition and protected when they are not in use.
The large exterior pocket on the Foil bag is great for a number of items. Whether you keep your rigging in the bag when travelling or you are keeping a spare set of battens or ropes in the pocket there is plenty of space.
The pocket also has a mesh base to drain any water and moisture out and let air flow in and out of the pocket.
The Name tag is great if you are regularly travelling to events.
In a busy boat park it's easy to lose track of where you may have put your boat covers and foil bag especially if a lot of people have the same covers. The handy tag helps you make sure you know whose cover is whos.
The top half of the bag has a zip running around it. We have all at some point either seen someone struggling or ourselves struggle to get out foils back into other foil bags with small tight openings. The large opening makes this a lot easier to get the foils in and out of the bag whether that be with the bag on the ground or up in the air.
Unlike other foil bags, this has a very stong metal zip that is more durable and less likely to break. The Plastic zips are great when they are new but long periods of UV whilst sat in the bat pack mean they tend to lose the zip teeth therefore it becomes incredibly difficult to do up and undo after long-term use.
A lot of foil bags come with additional padded separation for the rudder and the centreboard however, the Gorilla foil bag has an additional sleeve on the side that could fit and an additional rudder or blade. Handy if you like to keep spare available.

Mast tape was delivered promptly, and whilst it does not look like much, it works brilliantly on my older Laser with significant wear on both the mast and hull
Had the boom and mast in stock. Order processed quickly, great service and local so could pick them up. Friendly and helpful staff as always. Thank you
Ordered this item for an alternative use for my young boy who loves playing spiderman and wrapping/tying objects up with different coloured string/rope.
Arrived quickly and with a fab assortment of different ropes. Perfect for the purpose of my purchase.
Thank you.
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.
