The sun sets, and with it, the familiar world fades into darkness. Doubt can slip in with the dark, a quiet voice whispering, "You're alone out here." But a true sailor knows this isn't the time for fear. This is the moment for courage. They don't fear the deep night; they welcome it. For centuries, our ancestors looked not to the shore but to the skies. They did not see a blank darkness, but a map of shining stars. They found their way by the unblinking eye of Polaris and the steady path of Orion. The stars remind us that the greatest journeys aren't measured by distance, but by the spirit that carries you through the unknown. So, as the last light fades, lift your eyes. Find your direction in the constellations. When you navigate by the stars, you must not fear the dark—you must see it as your guide. In the deepest night our adventurous spirit shines the brightest.

Do you know your Code Sails? Swipe 10 pics with info on these light wind power units. Cruising and performance sailors on yachts—especially those sailing catamarans—are increasingly turning to Code sails to fill the power gap between traditional headsails (genoas and above all self-tacking solents) and downwind spinnakers.  ▫️ These free-flying, furling sails combine versatility, relative ease of use, and performance across a range of wind angles in lighter winds. ▫️ But with names like Code 0, Code 65, 55, Code D, “screecher”, "reacher" and “gennaker” floating around, what do these terms actually mean? ▫️ Let’s break it down by sail type, wind angle suitability, and best use cases. ▫️ Term Screecher slang for flat Code sails (typically Code 65 or Code 0) Gennaker - Generic asymmetric sail between genoa and spinnaker; a.k.a a Code D SMG - Sail Mid-Girth (% of foot); defines sail depth. ▫️ What's your favourite light wind sail? #Sails #academy #learnsailing
