RX Pro:

We were thrilled to announce the release of the RX Pro in January and now we are equally as thrilled to announce two exciting new options.

The 2017 RX Pro sports a number of innovative undersurface refinements:

• Fresh clean under surface with the new ‘Swoosh’ design
• Batten Cut-outs which allows an altogether tighter sail span-wise without extra panel tension
• Super clean tip area
• Consistent bar pressure and feedback provides confidence at higher speeds
• Less unwanted yaw and roll gives you the “glides on rails” effect

New option - the Pro-Edge Trailing Edge.

The Moyes Pro-Edge is a new high-tech laminate by Dimension Polyant and is now available as an option on the RX Pro.
Its random array of non-woven composite filaments provides a perfect combination of fibres suitable for the trailing edge.

Technically: A fully isotropic load response
Durability: Excellent abrasion resistance
Visually: A smooth, flat and sheet-like sharp trailing edge appearance
Performance: Improved high speed

New option - the Skylite Undersurface.

The Moyes Skylite undersurface is a light weight clear laminate option now available on all RX Pro models.

The plan form of the Skylite design offers the much desired ‘see through’ effect without compromising handling or stability.

The Skylite layout utilizes Dacron cloth at the tip area resulting in the same predictable pitch and handling characteristics that the RX series is known for.

Our team has once again exceeded expectations with this innovative design and the results speak for themselves.

We are thrilled to bring this new option to the market!

Skylite... a Moyes innovation that gives a fresh new appearance without compromise.

Gecko:

Our Moyes signature Rim and Core design has been incorporated into the Gecko mainsail adding further stability and durability to the Technora option.

We are also offering the Moyes Bird Asymmetric design under surface as an option and have it shown on a separate order form.
