Ullman Sails Newport Beach

You probably know the feeling.

The breeze seems fine, but the boat just isn't quite settled. You're carrying more helm than usual, heeling harder than expected, or constantly adjusting things trying to find the groove.

Before changing everything, start with the basics.

Look at your sail trim, check your telltales and pay attention to what you're feeling through the helm.

Small adjustments can make a surprisingly big difference.

And if something consistently feels wrong, that's worth a conversation with your local loft.

On the Water August - https://ullmansails.h5mag.com/newsletter_august_2026/cover

Some weekends, all you need is a boat, a breeze and nowhere else you need to be.

No schedule. No rush. Just a few good hours on the water.

One of the best parts of our community is seeing where sailing takes all of you.

Every photo you tag us in tells another story.

Every sail that leaves our loft has a team behind it.

Years of experience.
Countless sails.
A genuine passion for helping sailors enjoy their time on the water.

We're lucky to have people like this as part of the Ullman family.

Ask anyone about their favourite day on the water and they'll probably start with the sailing.

But keep listening.

Soon they'll be talking about the people, the laughs, the stories back at the dock and the little moments that happened in between.

That's the magic of this sport, the sailing brings us together but everything else is what keeps us coming back.

Who's been part of your favourite sailing memories?
