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.

Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Excellent fit for a topaz. Great service on collection.
Perfect
Love this bag. Great wet area within it as well.
Excellent to use as for a birthday gift to family members keen on sailing
Currently 2 weeks into an Eastern Mediterranean trip with these shoes. Grip is great and they drain really well. Comfort is brilliant… as long as you take the right size. I followed the measurement guidelines and they work well. Highly recommend shoe!
Quick despatch and a good quality product. Moves smoothly along the boom.
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Reeves really easily, jams well and excellent grip
I bought the burgee and clip for a Hartley 12 and found downwind sailing much easier single handed. The clip came with the screws so it was a 10 minute job including dropping the mast. Website worked well again and the items were delivered quickly so a good job all round.
