International sailing championship SailGP is to extend its partnership with Doyle Sails through to 2030.
Doyle Sails has been a partner of the Rolex SailGP Championship since its inception, and has powered SailGP’s F50 catamarans since the inaugural season in 2019.
This latest partnership extension marks the first five-year agreement between the two organisations.
Doyle Sails supplies the six jibs for each of SailGP’s 13 international teams that are used across the 13-event calendar.
Doyle’s role extends beyond sail supply; the sailmaker also supports the modelling and analysis of SailGP’s full aero package, including its multi-element hard wings.
From the very first season, SailGP has embodied the cutting edge of high-performance sailing.

SailGP Technologies’ team of boat builders, designers and engineers work closely with Doyle Sails to analyse rig loads, assess the impacts of high forces on the wings, and refine the aerodynamics that underpin performance across the fleet.
“Having a partner like Doyle Sails on board, providing best-in-class sails for one of the most advanced racing yachts in the world, is critical to our athletes’ experience, and the caliber of our racing,” said Joel Marginson, SailGP Technologies director.
“Our partnership with Doyle Sails has grown alongside our championship from the very beginning, with both brands pushing each other to improve, excel and continually innovate. We are looking forward to what’s in store over the next four seasons and beyond.”
Precision and performance
Emma Hendy, Doyle Sails’ chief commercial officer, added: “From the very first season, SailGP has embodied the cutting edge of high-performance sailing.”
She added: “This partnership is about far more than sail supply; it’s a deep technical collaboration focused on innovation, precision and performance at the very highest level.
‘As SailGP continues to grow and evolve, we’re excited to keep pushing boundaries together and delivering solutions that help define the future of our sport.”
The 2026 Season of the Rolex SailGP Championship starts this weekend in Perth, racing in Western Australia’s capital for the first time.
