With saturation at 95%, this is a high-chroma color: the kind that anchors palettes and demands considered placement.

In digital environments, Sail is rendered as rgb(175, 228, 253), where the blue channel is highest at 253, though it sits close to the other channels. High saturation at this lightness produces strong contrast against white — effective for CTAs, badges, and elements that need to stop the eye.

For print, Sail translates to a CMYK breakdown of 31C 10M 0Y 1K. With almost no black ink (1%), this color is built almost entirely from process inks: 31% cyan, 10% magenta. This profile tends toward vibrancy in print, though ink density limits on press may affect saturation on coated versus uncoated stock.
