A sail comprising a rotating flexible mast sleeve wrap surrounding the mast and attached to a sail track for controlling the movement of the sail. The sleeve assembly is slotted to allow for partial rotation of the sleeve wrap, the sail track and the sail, so that the sleeve wrap, the sail track and the sail rotate to form an aerodynamic shape on the lee side of the rotating flexible mast reducing aerodynamic losses.
