DHOW SAILS

What is Dhow Sails?

The Dhow Sail is a tribute to the rich maritime heritage of the Arabian Gulf, where dhows were once essential vessels for trade, transport, and the pearling industry. With their iconic lateen sails and sleek hulls, dhows remain a symbol of Arabian seafaring legacy, and today, they are experiencing a resurgence among sailors in the UAE who wish to preserve their traditional roots.

Loong Sails is proud to craft Dhow Sails that not only reflect the cultural significance of these vessels but also incorporate modern technology and materials to deliver superior performance. We understand the historical importance of the dhow, and we’ve dedicated ourselves to making sails that honor this legacy while elevating the performance of these timeless vessels.

What Makes Our Dhow Sails Special

• Built for Real Conditions – These aren’t just show pieces; they’re working sails designed for daily use in the Gulf’s challenging environment
• No Compromise Craftsmanship – Each sail is hand-finished by artisans who understand traditional Dhow requirements
• Smart Modern Touches – While keeping traditional appearance, we incorporate durable reinforcements where they matter most

“Six months in, and the sails look as good as new despite heavy use. We’ve had countless compliments from other Dhow owners at the marina.”
