UK Sailmakers has spent a lot of time over the last three years developing racing-winning sails for the Optimist Class. Developed by Morten Ullmann, owner of UK Sailmakers Denmark, for his son and son’s friends, the sails have won many regattas in Denmark and qualified for both the Europeans and Worlds the last two years.
