OneSails has joined IMOCA Green Sail Rule

OneSails has joined the panel of experienced sailmakers collaborating on IMOCA’s new Green Sail rule. This chosen group of sailmakers will discuss the next steps needed to create real change to improve sustainability in the sail making industry.


After more than 10 years of research, OneSails is currently the only sailmaker with ISO certification of high-performance sails, which deliver low CO2 emissions in the construction process with 100% recyclability at the end of the sail’s useful life.


“Having OneSails join our Green Sail rule will add a good dynamic to the group”, said IMOCA.


IMOCA continued, “In the last edition of the Vendée Globe, we saw their sails onboard Medallia and Stark. Joining the group allows OneSails to reveal its sail technology to the sailing community and its purpose to combine sustainability with performance; we are happy to welcome them to our panel.»


Dede De Luca CEO of OneSails International said, “We join this project with enthusiasm, ready to share our knowledge and experience to help the sailmaking industry on its sustainability development. The IMOCA class has started a pioneering journey with its green sails rule and we are happy to be part of it.”

OneSails takes on the challenge of the 2024 Vendée Globe

OneSails is proud to participate once again in the Vendée Globe, bringing a new generation of cutting-edge and sustainable sails to the race. Following the success of the 2020-2021 edition, OneSails is represented in this edition by Conrad Colman on MS Amlin and Arnaud Boissières on La Mie Caline, both equipped with the brand’s latest technologies. Colman, the New Zealand navigator, has chosen a full set of 4T Forte 525-R sails, designed to ensure high performance and minimal environmental impact, while Boissières, the French navigator, has opted for a FR0, an asymmetric fractional sail for downwind sailing built with the same technology.

Kuka 3 Overall ORC Winners at the Middle Sea Race 2024

Kuka 3, owned by Franco Niggeler, claimed a stunning victory at the 45th edition of the Middle Sea Race, securing both the ORC overall scoreboard and class win. This year’s race proved to be quite the challenge, with the fleet facing two brutal storms packing winds over 50 knots, interspersed with stretches of frustrating calm. A key factor in their success was the brand new full inventory of 4T FORTE Sails, which powered them through both the fierce gales and the windless lulls. On board, they had experienced OneSails sailors, including Samuele Nicoletti and Sandro Montefusco, whose expertise played a crucial role in managing the changing conditions.

Winners of the ORC European championship 2024!

The Sugar Sailing Team reconfirmed themselves as champions in the waters of Mariehamn, Åland, defending their title with determination in a tight championship until the last race. Here is the comment of Simone Ferrarese, tactician on board: "It was a close race until the end. The boat was always fast, making the tactics easier. With two non-discardable offshore races, the risk was high and in the last one we had some difficulties, so the last day was crucial. The guys did a great job and we managed to finish successfully. We are really happy to end the year like this and we are looking forward to next season." Italia 9.98/EST Sugar is equipped with a full set of Onesails sails with 4T FORTE™ technology for upwind sails.

This year, the team chose to lengthen the bowsprit and increase the gennaker surface area (120 square metres instead of 110), improving performance for the entire inventory of downwind sails: AF0 girth 85%, A1, A2, A3
