The World is Flat. Today's North sails panels are made in various parts of the world. For example, the panels for our new tri radial #1 kevlar genoa were made in Sri Lanka and assmebled in the states.

Benz is a long time Zephyr sailor and has a good deal of experience designing sails. In my mind, there is no question were the best J/30 main is designed and built. Next time you are in New Orleans, please visit the North loft and talk to Benz. I think you'll like his ideas.
