A generally triangular-shaped, radial-cut sail intended for use with a small sailing craft such as a Laser™ Class sailboat. A mast sleeve or “luff tube” is arranged or formed adjacent the luff area of the sail, extending from the head to the foot, and sized to accommodate a flexible mast formed of two or more mast sections. A luff tube patch is placed on the leading edge of the mast sleeve adjacent a point where the mast sections meet when the sailing rig is assembled.
