THE Flying Fifteen

P&B Flying Fifteen - The Class-Leading Package

The P&B and Ovington combination has dominated the Flying Fifteen class for over two decades. Ovington hulls have been at the front of the fleet at World Championship level for over 20 years, and P&B sails have won the last three consecutive World titles with Graham Vials and Chris Turner taking victory in 2019, 2023 and 2025.

Our resident Flying Fifteen expert Ian Pinnell oversees every boat that leaves the P&B workshop, ensuring every customer receives the highest quality, race-ready package.

All boats are built to a full championship specification:

• Full carbon inner skin as standard for enhanced stiffness and performance
• Harken fittings throughout with a Winder moulded epoxy rudder
• Choice of Epsilon or Alto mast
• Full P&B sail suit cut to your crew weight
