Presented at Boot Düsseldorf, DFi® Explore enriches the DFi® filament membrane range developed by Incidence Sails.
Designed for demanding sailing programmes, it combines performance, durability and aesthetics, with a major novelty: the new grey colour, alongside the existing black and yellow options.
DFi® Explore : Explore: a membrane built to last
Developed by Incidence Sails’ R&D teams, DFi® Explore responds to a clear customer need: a highly resistant sail, capable of maintaining its performance and appearance over time.
Its reinforced external protective layer significantly improves resistance to chafe and abrasion.
The core of the membrane is based on the proven DFi® Offshore, a benchmark for offshore racing, renowned for its shape retention and longevity.
