About the North BrandThe North brand started in 1957 when Olympic gold medallist and trained engineer, Lowell North, sought to change the world of sailing through precision technology. North pioneered advanced computer modelling in the design and manufacture processes. Nothing teaches design like nature. That’s why the North design process starts and finishes on the water. Every day we are inspired – and humbled - by nature’s engineering genius and her beautiful, intuitive simplicity. To that, we add cutting-edge technology and decades of expertise.When the elements call to us it’s the ultimate seduction. We must go. This magnetic pull for freedom, for performance, for exhilaration - beats fear. We understand what it takes to commit to the unknown.-WE ARE NORTH
