Designed for intensive use
Co-designed with the French Sailing Federation and sailing clubs, the Tribord 5S PRO has been reinforced for intensive use by professionals (clubs or rental companies). We've also added features that are essential for this particularly demanding type of use:
- Tow rings.
- Arisable sail from 5.6 m² to 3.2 m².
- Dis-masting and storage with the hull inflated.
Easily arisable sail
To enable use in a wider wind range and for a younger clientele (children in sailing clubs, for example), we've developed a sail that can be easily reefed and that wraps around the mast, reducing the sail area from 5.6 m² to 3.2 m².
Sail with peace of mind
Great attention has been paid to usability and comfort on board: uncluttered deck, high boom and U-shaped foam-padded seating.
- Flat hull for maximum stability.
- Floating sail: foam at the top of the sail to help stop it turning inside out.
- Grab handles at various strategic points on the boat, in particular to reposition the boat easily.
- Sail can be rolled up on land to take it from 5.6 m2 to 3.2 m2
SAIL EASY!
A tiller for steering and a sheet to adjust the sail with complete ease. No other adjustments are necessary during assembly or while sailing, helping you to get the most enjoyment out of the boat.
A helpful wind vane is included with the boat to assist you in adjusting the sail.
How does it differ from the 5S V1?
- The position of the mast has been moved back to make the boat sail better downwind.
- Durable boat for intensive club use: Transom, pads, boom, rudder blade.
- Different boom and sail for better sail handling.
- Topping lift makes it easier to set up and take down.
- The length of the rudder blade has been increased.
- Tow rings and rings for adding a back-up strap.
- Position and number of handles to get back on the boat for desalination.

SAIL ANYWHERE!
The Tribord 5S PRO can be assembled at the water's edge. Extremely lightweight (39 kg) and with removable wheels, meaning you are no longer tied to needing a port or other launching structure.
You will be able to access all bodies of water: sea, lakes, rivers...
It is the user's responsibility to check the sailing conditions (current, sea conditions, wind) and access rights to the body of water before you set sail!
The real sailing experience!
In collaboration with our naval architects Tanguy de Lamotte and Anne-Claire Le Berre, we wanted to develop a high-performance and reassuring sailing boat.
It will let you experience all aspects of sailing: gliding across the water, waves lapping against the hull, the fun of playing with the wind, and more!
Let the water be your playing field.
Dimensions How heavy is it?
When the boat is packed inside its 2 bags:
- Hull bag dimensions (not included, reference 8601206):
length x width x height (cm): 165 x 58 x 33 cm
- Dimensions of sail bag, keels and prop
length x width x height (cm): 150 x 31 x 31
When the boat is assembled:
- Dimensions of the inflated hull:
length x width (cm): 308 x 140
Weight of the boat: 39 kg.
Weight during transport: 46 kg (1 bag weighing 35 kg, 1 bag weighing 11 kg).
What if the boat gets a puncture?
The hull of the boat uses "dropstitch" technology, which has been tried and tested on our range of stand-up paddleboards (2 layers of PVC stitched together by thousands of polyester threads). It would therefore require a sharp-edged object for this to happen.
But what if it does happen?
The hull of the Tribord 5S has been designed with 3 independent air chambers (bladders) to get you back to shore safely, even in the event that one of them gets punctured.
SERVICE
- all parts are available from after-sales service
- Repairable hull
- Repair kit: most minor damage is easily repairable using the patches matching the colours of the hull, included with the boat (glue sold separately).
