A sail body includes first and second skin layers (40, 42), each skin layer having an outer film at an outer site and reinforcement elements at an inner site. The skin layers are laminated with the inner sides abutting to form the sail body. The skin layers are each made up of skin components (38) joined to other skin components of the same skin layer along their aligned edges. The joined edges (44) of the first skin layer are offset from the joined edges of the second skin layer to strengthen the sail body. The sail body is preferably a three-dimensional moulded sail body. The fibres or other reinforcement are preferably generally aligned with the expected load lines of the sail body.
