Why Easy-Cruz?

Ports all over the world are brimming with 20-30 plus-year-old fiberglass cruising boats. Although aged and occasionally outdated, many of these sailing boats remain perfectly functional for regular use and in some cases, are structurally capable of safely undertaking longer voyages.

These boats are often acquired at a fraction of their original cost due to significant depreciation. However, new owners frequently encounter a financial shock when they realize the high costs associated with updating and maintaining the equipment, rigging, and sails. This is where Easy-Cruz sees a substantial unfulfilled gap in owners needs.

Exceptional Value:

Easy-Cruz aims to support the owners of these durable older models by providing no-frills yet reliable cruising products. By offering affordable and practical solutions, we enable these boats to continue their voyages without breaking the bank.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between the low acquisition cost of these boats and the high cost of maintaining them, ensuring that sailing remains accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

How We Do It

1

Production Efficiency

Owning our own production facility in an efficient environment allows us to optimize production costs. We further enhance efficiency by standardizing production procedures and streamlining every step of the process. With a limited number of options available for our Easy-Cruz sails, we save on design and production time thus reducing overall costs. We utilize modern advanced manufacturing methods to ensure each sail is crafted to perfection. Our rationalised production process eliminates non-essential complexities, allowing us to produce durable sails that perform under all conditions.

2

Materials

Our Easy-Cruz range uses only high tenacity sail cloth materials, sourced directly from factories to avoid additional distribution costs from agents, stockists, or branded trademarks. We manufacture ourselves many of our own sail fittings and hardware, ensuring cost efficiency. Critical components such as high tenacity UV inhibited sewing threads and specialized parts are sourced from trusted suppliers in the USA or EU, ensuring no compromise on material quality.

3

Direct Distribution

Instead of distributing our Easy-Cruz sails through a network of retail outlets, we sell directly to you. This direct sales model eliminates intermediary costs and margins, allowing us to offer competitive prices. We also commission a reasonable amount to local sailmakers who recommend us and are available to assist you with questions and support. This ensures you have professional advice and assistance without expensive additional costs, making the entire process smoother and more affordable for you.

4

Overbranding

With Easy-Cruz, we recognize that excessive branding can inflate costs unnecessarily. As a modest company, we focus on providing value rather than spending heavily on marketing to push our image. While we understand the importance of brand recognition, we prioritize delivering well-built sails at affordable prices.
