Our Quantum Expert's take: The best way to keep your jib, (or any sail) from developing mildew is to use it. The longer a sail is folded or tightly rolled--particularly if stored wet--the more likely it will be for mildew to develop. Roller-furling headsails left furled and unused for long periods of time are prime candidates.

Mildew has long been a problem for sailmakers, particularly since the advent of composite materials. Whereas woven materials "breath," composites consisting of multiple layers are more prone to trapping moisture thereby serving creating an environment for mildew growth. All modern composites used in cruising sails have fungicides added during lamination to discourage mildew growth, but they are not 100% mildew-free. The good news is that mildew will not harm the performance of the material, only the appearance.

Quantum has a variety of options to mitigate mildew; speak with any of us at the Annapolis loft about which option is best for you and your sails. We also recommend coating mildew-susceptible sails with a hydrophobic solution, which will severely limit or completely eliminate future growth.

We are incredibly excited to announce that championship offshore racer and trusted regional advisor Alan Campbell has officially joined Quantum Sails as a Sail and Design Consultant.

Alan brings more than a decade of industry expertise and deep roots in the Chesapeake Bay community. Whether he's competing in local log canoes and Stars or dominating offshore classics, including his recent 1st overall finish in the St. David’s division at the 2026 Newport Bermuda Race, Alan understands exactly how to optimize a boat's performance. Following Quantum’s acquisition of Jenkins Sails, Alan steps into his new role to provide personalized consultation, sail inventory management, and hands-on program support for sailors across the region.

"Alan brings exactly the kind of depth we look for at Quantum," said Jason Currie, US Sales Manager. "He knows the Chesapeake racing community from the inside, he has real industry experience, and he understands what sailors need to perform at their best. We're glad to have him on the team."

His addition underscores Quantum’s ongoing mission to recruit premier talent focused entirely on client success in our core regions.

"Growing our presence in key areas like Annapolis requires finding individuals who aren't just knowledgeable, but who are deeply embedded in the local fabric," says Kris Werner, Director of Eastern US Sales for Quantum. "Adding top talent like Alan allows us to build a more robust team capable of delivering highly personalized service right where our clients need us most."

"I am incredibly excited to join the Quantum team," says Alan. "This transition allows me to bring a whole new level of resources and technology to my existing clients while building new relationships throughout the Bay. I’m looking forward to being out on the docks every weekend, helping sailors get the absolute most out of their boats."

Please join us in giving Alan a warm welcome to the Annapolis loft!
