Solo buying questions

What Solo parts does MAURIPRO carry?

3 products are listed for the Solo on this page: blocks & sheaves (2); hiking, trapeze & crew gear (1). Prices and availability shown are live from our catalogue.

How do I know a part fits my Solo?

Each part here is linked to the Solo because its exact manufacturer part number appears on the Solo parts lists we reviewed. Fit can still depend on your boat's year, builder and rig, so check the product details and your class rules, or ask our technical team before you order.

Where can I find the Solo rig dimensions?

Our Solo Sailboat Data page lists the rig dimensions (I, J, P, E) and other published data we hold for this boat. Figures there come from a sailboat database and may differ from class measurement rules.

Are there tuning guides for the Solo?

Sailmakers have published tuning guides for this class, including North Sails (Solo Tuning Guide, Current page (updated for P-4/F-4/L-4 designs; earlier PDF edition February 2018)); Pinnell & Bax (Solo Tuning Guide, 2021 PDF); HD Sails (Jim Hunt) (HD Sails Solo Tuning Guide, Undated PDF; the file itself was created December 2014 (its URL folder is February 2012)); Hyde Sails (Ben McGrane) (Solo Tuning 2021 – View from the RIB, Article titled '2021', published 12 January 2022).
