Doyle Boston Sails announces new Website!
As you can see we have totally revamped our website to add a few things, like video and a much more user friendly for us to keep the page updated. Our old site was set up in such a way that we could not easily update the site and keep you all informed as to what we have had going on. In that last year our sails have had great success on water, this is due to our great design team, the incredible job that our employees have done building the highest quality sail you can buy and of course our awesome customers that make us what we are! Thanks to all of you.
Doyle Boston Sails and Doyle NZ announce a strategic design partnership.
Over the past year we have also work more closely with Richard Bouzaid, Doyle Sails head designer and Team NZ designer, to further refine our sail designs in some of our bigger projects. Richard knowledge of our sail design software along with its aero package has taken our sail designs to the next level. Spike continues to be our head designer here in house but by having the extra tools that Richard brings to the program we have really stepped up to the next level.
On the construction side, we have been building a mixture of Doyle Stratis Membrane sails and Dimension/Polyant’s D4 MP Membranes to give us the best one two punch on the market. To see a bit of the Stratis production method check out the Stratis section of the web page.
Doyle Boston Sails Dominates the 20’ Sport boat market
Doyle Boston Sails is the unparalled leader in the 20’ Sport boat market. Our great success in the Ultimate 20 fleet over the past 6 years lead us into the most popular 20’ Sport boat on the market, the Viper 640. We have been in the Viper fleet for just under two years and have taken the fleet by storm! Our sails have won every major regatta the fleet has sailed! Bacardi Cup, check, Charleston Race Week, check, HPDO, check, CORK, check, Long Beach Race Week, check, the EFG Pan Am series, check and of course the North American’s, check check, (back to back NA’s titles for Team Jackpot). Most of the top events we had at least 2 of the top 3! Not to bad for the new comer in the fleet. We have continued our winning ways in the U 20 fleet as well. Jim Pearson won the North American’s this year out in Colorado. That was the 6th consecutive NA’s for our sails.
