The 3940 sails are fabric as are the sails of the schooner and other ships based on it.

I seem to remember they were, and certainly the schooner and corsair vessels have fabric.

I have owned them.

For the pirate ships, including the corsairs, see here:

perhaps if i'am not mistaken the 3860 is from the same material with the house 5300 curtines but a little thicker the others have plastick surely because they smelled burned plastic when i  ironed them

Maybe the 3940 has some plastic or similar (e.g. nylon) in the sails.  However, the corsairs and schooner are fabric.  See here:

Having made sails of the same weight and feel as the corsair sails, the material I used had a sort of rubbery backing that bonded it together, so maybe the sails are bonded together in some way so they feel like fabric, but because of what is used in the process it would smell if the iron was too hot. 
(Does this make sense?)

I think the curtains from the mansion are made of a type of felt.

The sails for the corsair felt like felt to me, Elaine, and single thickness.
