The underlying philosophy at Winner is grounded in the belief that the combination of the finest materials and exceptional craftsmanship results in the creation of the best boat. While this commitment may lead to a higher initial cost, the reduced maintenance requirements and enhanced durability ensure that the exceptional sailing performance is maintained throughout the boat's lifetime. This focus on longevity makes Winner a cost-effective choice in the long run.
Winner utilizes the highest quality Gelcoat globally, contributing to a more hydrodynamic hull surface. Additionally, their use of fiberglass, which is up to 50% more expensive than alternatives, provides superior torsion resistance and stiffness.

The skilled craftsmen, recruited locally, are among the best in their field.
A noteworthy aspect that sets Winner apart is the assurance of a 5-year guarantee on their hulls, a unique offering in the market. Adding to Winner's credibility is their enduring relationship with Sailcenter, emphasizing a longstanding partnership that further attests to the quality and reliability of Winner's Optimist boats.
