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

S/V FanSea Hobos is a Deltaville, Virginia based 2008 Gemini Catamaran 105MC For Sale By Owner. This owner requires financial settlement only. No trades. 2008 Gemini 105MC Catamaran — 34′ LOA, 14′ beam. This well-maintained example is in excellent condition and presents as a turnkey platform for comfortable coastal cruising. The boat has been carefully cared for and thoughtfully upgraded, including a modern solar energy system to support extended stays off the dock. A dinghy and outboard are included, making this 105MC ready to cruise from day one. The Gemini 105MC was developed as an affordable, compact, and easy-to-handle cruising catamaran ideal for sailors transitioning to multihulls. The “MC” (convertible) introduced an extended cockpit cover to allow a full enclosure, effectively expanding usable living space and protecting the cockpit/lounge from the elements. The MC also features a slightly taller mast while remaining ICW-friendly, preserving good performance in light airs without sacrificing low-clearance capability for inland waters. This boat’s layout and design emphasize practical use, safety and simplicity: a protected cockpit that converts to an enclosed social area, ample deck access for handling lines and anchoring, and systems geared toward low-maintenance cruising. The upgraded solar array and well-organized electrical system improve self-sufficiency, charging house batteries and supporting onboard amenities while underway or at anchor. Mechanically sound and marina-ready, this Gemini 105MC is suited for weekend adventures, coastal passagemaking, or as a comfortable liveaboard platform for sailors who value easy handling and sensible systems.
