*Please Note : This video was shot towards the end of production so not everything shown in the video has been finished to Columbia Yachts usual high standard. "We're in the cockpit of the Columbia Carbon 32. This boat has a fractional rig with Asymetrical spinnakers. This particular boat, boat #1, has a retractable carbon bowsprit. All the boats after this will have a fixed carbon bowsprit. The boat carries small headsails and big mains. The jibs are 108%, not a large headsail. The boat will have a full 108% jib and then a very flat 105% jib."

It's easy to untie too, once the line is safely heaved over. ... The trick is to give yourself enough rope to work with, so make your loops a fair way down from the working end, just practice it. .....
