Yacht Sails Material. TS256 oz Mylar with scrim in the warp and fill directions. If you want to sail into the wind like at 60 degrees or less then you will need a sail that has an air foil shape to it which generates lift and the material it is made out of should resist stretching.
Most sails are made of polyester or nylon but the higher-end sails may be made of aramid Ultra PE or carbon fiber. Polly tarp is a cheap cheerful and relatively easy material to test out your ideas on. If you can live with a heavier sail that flies well this classic75-ounce nylon is still a very nice tough material with low porosity.
This style of design is most suited to smaller yachts or high aspect sails such as mainsails and No 3 genoas.
