This sail is the 'new design' to the 5.3 Topper Sail (Late 2019)
The latest design of Topper 5.3 sail (from 21st Sept 2020 manufacture) has:
- No sail head cringle. (See web image of actual sail).
- A different sail material is now used.
- The design/cut is different at the head of the sail.
- The luff tube is now tapered
If you have the old style mast top fitting for the halyard loop you will need to change to the Topper E11 Mast Head fitting.
Advantages of the webbing version:
1) No more breaking mast cranes ruining your race results.
2) The sail sits perfectly at the top.
