Quick Sail Replacement for FORTUNE612III

The Kyosho FO53 sail set replaces worn sails on the FORTUNE612III to bring back predictable handling and trim. Panels are aligned for the original rig so the set installs cleanly onto existing spars.

Weather Resistance and Longevity

Constructed to tolerate UV exposure and salt spray, the Kyosho FO53 sail set retains shape through regular use. With sensible care the sails will provide season after season of service on the FORTUNE612III.

Basic Installation Advice

Compare the new sails to the originals, transfer any battens and fittings, and rig according to the FORTUNE612III guide. Run trials and tweak sheet tension to suit local conditions and sailing style.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How long does it take to replace the sails?

For a prepared builder it typically takes 30 to 60 minutes to swap sails, transfer fittings and perform an initial rig check on the FORTUNE612III.

Will original fittings work with the FO53 set?

Yes, the FO53 is cut to match the FORTUNE612III pattern so original shackles and rings usually fit without modification.

Any advice for trimming in choppy water?

Ease the sheets slightly and allow more twist to reduce pounding. Increase vang tension only if you need to depower the sails quickly.
