Rigge - Maui Sails Windsurf

World renowned sail designer, Barry Spanier, teamed up with the veteran racer and former PBA World champion, Phil McGain, in 1999, to use their experience in leading edge windsurfing technology and Research and Development to provide the tools to win the Overall World Cup title in 2000. That team went on to win five more titles since 2000, and became one of the premier development groups of today. Barry Spanier and The Team at MauiSails have led developments in all aspects of the sport since 1978, and continue to lead the way today.

The name MauiSails has been synonymous with high performance windsurfing, including designs for world speed records and for providing designs and prototypes for more than a decade long domination of PBA/PWA World Championships. When Barry Spanier made it back to the magical Island of Maui after his shipwreck disaster in 1978, he was enchanted by the ambiance of this unique spot in the middle of the Pacific, and decided to make it his home base. After twenty-five years in the industry, the revival of MauiSails has been the natural step for the people who are driven by the pure passion for windsurfing. MauiSails represents these people, their ambition to make best sails, their pursuit to popularize an extraordinary lifestyle, and their vision of how the windsurfing world should appear in the twenty-first century. What matters most is helping windsurfers enjoy time on the water, regardless of the location or the level of their performance.

The MauiSails philosophy is about showing people they can do great things, that they can pursue their dreams, even if they seem impossible to come true. When you come to Maui and you're sailing off the North Shore, you turn to catch the next wave and look out to see the two mountains, with pure adrenaline in your veins and that feather light trim on your sail... that is the MauiSails feeling.

It is the passion for a sailing life that drew us all together to do the thing we love most. ...MauiSails.... The TEAM... the windsurfing company.
